Cactus & Succulent Mix
Fast-Draining Soil for Jungle Cacti & Moisture-Tolerant Succulents
Our Cactus & Succulent Mix is carefully formulated for species that need fast drainage but don’t mind a bit of moisture—perfect for jungle cacti and succulents that aren’t extreme desert dwellers. This blend dries quickly, resists compaction, and supports strong, healthy roots in indoor or outdoor containers.
With its gritty texture and biologically active ingredients, this mix balances drainage, aeration, and just the right touch of moisture for steady, controlled growth.
🌞 Why It Works
Quick Draining & Aerated
A base of coarse perlite, sand, calcined clay, and mini LECA balls creates airflow and rapid drainage to help prevent overwatering and root rot.
Balanced Moisture Retention
Coconut husk chips, coir fiber, and a small amount of peat moss provide light moisture-holding capacity for plants that don’t like to fully dry out too fast.
Mineral-Rich & Microbe-Friendly
Worm castings, azomite, and glacial rock dust supply trace nutrients and support beneficial soil biology—essential for long-term plant vitality.
Living Soil, Naturally Active
Biologically alive and free from synthetic fertilizers, this mix may occasionally show signs of healthy microbial activity like mycelium—simply mix it back in.
