Know before you buy
Yes, this mix is formulated to balance moisture retention with aeration, making it safe for succulents. However, if you are growing desert-dwelling varieties that require extremely fast drainage, you may want to amend this mix with extra perlite or pumice.
No, this is an all-natural, organic blend. It relies on high-quality compost and aged bark to provide nutrients to your plants rather than synthetic chemical additives.
No, this is a ready-to-use formulation. You can pour it directly from the bag into your pots without adding any other components.
While no organic soil is completely immune to pests, this mix is crafted with aged bark and compost to provide a healthy, balanced environment. To minimize the risk of gnats, ensure you do not overwater your plants and allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
Each bag contains 0.5 cubic feet of soil, which is equivalent to 16 quarts. This is generally enough to fill several small-to-medium-sized houseplant pots.
