🌵 Cactus & Succulent Mix
Fast-Draining, Low-Retention Soil for Healthy Desert Plants
Our Cactus & Succulent Mix is expertly crafted to meet the unique needs of desert-adapted plants. Designed to drain quickly, dry faster, and provide excellent airflow, this blend helps prevent overwatering and root rot—two of the most common issues for succulents and cacti in containers.
With a balance of gritty texture and lightweight structure, it supports healthy root development while maintaining just enough moisture for sustained growth.
🌞 Why It Works for Cacti & Succulents
-
Quick Drying & Low Moisture Retention
A blend of coarse perlite, sand, calcined clay, and coconut husk chunks promotes rapid drainage and prevents soggy conditions that harm roots. -
Excellent Aeration & Structure
LECA balls and vermiculite maintain air pockets throughout the mix, supporting root respiration and encouraging stronger, deeper root systems. -
Nutrient-Boosted & Microbe-Friendly
Worm castings, azomite, and glacial rock dust supply trace minerals and organic matter that support both plant nutrition and microbial life. -
Living Soil = Long-Term Health
Like all our living mixes, this one is biologically active. You may occasionally notice mushrooms or mycelium—both are natural signs of microbial health and can be gently mixed back into the soil to enhance structure and fertility.
