I put them back into last year's mix... same mindset as with the European and Aussie terrestrials, don't know whether good or bad. When I unpotted, I bagged up the mix for each plant (or plants) so...

If you see any shriveling, increase the water. I would actually be reluctant to reduce the water much at all... maybe a little less often but if they're growing, they need more than teensy bits of...
