Cactus and Succulent Soil

I never thought about buying soil from Amazon, but I desperately needed it when my cacti took a turn for the worse. The bag was smaller than I expected, but the soil was fresh and my cacti seem much happier! Can't wait to plant more :)

Mix in with potting soil whenever re-potting container plants.  Avocados, sprinkle under the mulch layer, and add mulch back over the top.  Best used before temps get too hot.... Then when disease does attack, the plants will be highly resistant to the attack.  Outstanding for use on potted citrus.

I don't consider myself to be a plant expert or even really knowledgeable, but I honestly did not see anything different in this "succulent" soil than in regular soil.  I was expecting more dry soil or something.  This mix sems to retain water just as much as any regular mix.

Very happy with this product. It did take some patience when having to cut the wire and through the lining to plant each succulent. However, I love the final product!

great stuff. it expanded to almost fill a 5gl bucket. mix with perlite and all good. For the expansion, I would advise to mix the coco with nutrient rich water in calcium and magnesium the help the plants better if u transplant.

Needed a planter for my overthrowing pencil cactus. Needed a solid and wide base so it would not too over. I added a few rocks in the bottom and drilled 4 more holes. It is a fantastic looking planter

This product is great! I used it on my cactus and succulent plants. They are thriving and even the succulent. Has bloomed a long stem with flowers on it. I didn't know this was possible.

I love this beautiful Nopal cactus.  Since I purchased it, two new shoots have grown from existing plant.  It easy to care for and fast growing.  It looks great in my new cactus pot that I also purchased.

Bought this product to blend with my potting soil so I could plant succulents. So far, so good. My plants are doing well. The product is so lightweight. This is the first time I have used anything other than potting soil. Very satisfied.

My plants are going to town with this stuff.  My thumb was green before I tried it; now my whole hand is green.  It is important to realize that soil is as important to a plant as food is to us -- lousy soil makes sorry plants just as junk food makes unhealthy humans.  Using this has broadened my understanding of soil health, but even without that insight, I have made my plant collection flourish in amazing new ways.  One word of warning, though -- cacti don't seem to like it much.  It didn't exactly kill the ones I tried it on, but they looked pretty bad until I flushed the soil and let them go back to their low-nutrient diet.  But every other plant has grown even lusher, and greener, and taller.

Received my cactus in perfect condition. I looked around for planting directions and finally found one that said, "Plant it like you would any other new plant. Don't overwhelm it with sun at first and give it water as needed." That seemed to work just fine. Its been a few weeks now and its doing great, getting new leaves and growing taller. I would say its probably two inches taller and 50% fuller than it was when it arrived. The only thing I need to know now is how much cold it will withstand. I saw the same kind of plant, but about 15 feet taller, when I visited Kenya a couple months ago. I guess I will examine their winter temps and cover it if I need to or roll it's planter into the garage.

This has been great for my cacti. They are all exhibiting a ton of new growth in the months since Ive started using it. You can see all the modules on my plants in the photos. I would definitely purchase it again.

Really hard for me to find a 3" pot for my cactus, this one really fit the bill. My daughter figured out you can mix and match color by combining different "upper" body with the lower body. Works perfectly, wish they had some more colors though.

I use this stuff in my cacti soil mix. Works great to keep the soil quick draining. My cacti love it! Also makes a nice looking top dressing.

I read all the bad review and a handful of mixed reviews along with the five star reviews. The whole time I am skeptical about the product but, I ordered it because the products price was so cheap. I ordered and received nine succulents and nine cactus in two inch pots along with one extra cactus and one extra succulent. I got twenty plants total. They were all different besides one type of cactus. They come with little soil and need to be transplanted eventually so the roots can grow. The plants were packed with packaging peanuts and put in 2 cardboard boxes. All of them survived the shipping. I have had them for over a week and they all look good and healthy. I would recommend to a friend or even buy again myself.

This plant came to me surprisingly healthy, in a little pot and packaged standing upright. The succulent itself was in very good shape, healthy, dark green, not etoliated or over or under watered. He took to my home and undoor light set up very well, and I have had him for over 4 months now.

The plant I recieved was not very big, he had three stalks, and was about 3" inches taller than the top of the pot, about 6" inches altogether with the pot. I replanted him in a 6" inch tall pot with drainage holes, planted him in cactus and succulent soil, with river rocks at the bottom for drainage, and perlite mixed in, about 3:1 soil to perlite. He gets partial direct sun and an LED growing light for the less sunny days and through winter. He is watered about once a week, and the water drains very well through the pot. I use a popsicle stick to check the dirt in my plants to make sure they are dry before watering.

With this treatment he has grown two new branches, has a nice green color and firm fat leaves, with no discoloration or drooping. He did get a case of mealy worms, but I got rid of them with 2:1 90% rubbing alcohol and water and a couple drops of dishsoap mixture and q tips. Mealy worms leave a sticky white webbing on the plant, and you may see them running in the dirt if you look very closely, they are very small. That mixture will kill them quite quickly, and they may come back periodically, or with the introduction of new plants that brought them with them from their previous homes. Just spray or apply this mixture with a q tip to the entire plant in a thin layer, not too much or you may burn or damage the plant, and maybe a little bit to the top of the soil if you see them in it, whenever the bugs reappear. They go dormant in winter so you may think you got rid of them all for them to pop back up next spring. Be sure to treat affected plants quickly or they will spread through your indoor or outdoor gardens quickly.

I like this plant and was pleasantly surprised with its quality and its condition upon arrival after shipping. I would happily purchase this again!
