I remember seeing you keep carnivores plants I just purchased a pitcher plant and it already needs to be moved into a bigger pot, what type of soil is safe? I know to only use distilled water and they need high light but I don't know what soil is safe. I have a extra bag of Eco earth is that's useable

Use sphagnum moss as substrate for it..

Use a mixture of sphagnum moss, peat moss, and sand. Place the spagnum in the bottom of the pot over top some gravel for drainage. Then do a 50/ 50 mix of Peat moss and sand.

You could also use Vermiculite if you like.

What kind of Pitcher Plant is it?

I would get all complicated with that substrate on my own, but i mean the picture, thats one happy pitcher plant. 100% sphagnum moss.

Oh come on!! I'm only going for natural enviroment. Lol!! Sphagnum will work just fine. The mixture I gave was for good root adaption when introduced into a new pot. You sometimes want to match whatever soil mixture the plant has already been planted in so it doesn't go into shock.
