Since this is winter and you're in New Jersey, both VFTs and
Sarracenia should be dormant. They won't go dormant however
unless you shorten the photoperiod and cool the temps down.
You should also significantly cut back on soil moisture, so
it's just damp. That said, if your plants are doing ok right
now, you should probably just leave them alone, and let them
go dormant next fall, so they can ease into it. Here in the
San Francisco Bay Area and peninsula, I grow both VFTs and
Sarrs outdoors year round. They don't need jungle levels of
humidity to do well.
Good growing!

The list server that supports the CP list has some commands to
get lists of mail order suppliers. Lees is probably a good
source of reasonably priced CP such as you're looking for.
