Right now they're just in tiny 3" pots sitting on Echoscraps potting soil with small perlite for drainage. What is my best option for a good potting mixture for these?

Not sure if you got an answer Chris but don't be in a hurry to transplant rooted leaves until the rosette looks about the size of he pot. I start them out in 4 or 6 inch pots (the latter a community arrangement where I roll the dice with multiple leaves) and try to ignore them until they look crowded. I don't like pots under 4" because they dry out very fast. Anyway your usual well draining mix (half rock would be my recipe) should work just fine.

Now I've been misting these heavily regularly vice watering them is that alright? Is that alright? I noticed I've lost a few that had some small rosettes though that may have been caused by days when it hit over 100 in the greenhouse the past few weeks.
