"I have already purchased twice from Sybotanica in the last couple of weeks. I was so impressed with the quality of the soil mixes and how well the plants were doing."
Diarmuid Dunne, Ireland · Trustpilot"I ordered at Sybotanica for the third time. The quality is perfect! There was a problem with some products, but the support answered really quick and helped me out without hesitation."
Pakashi, Germany · Trustpilot"Really loved that I could order customised soil for every kind of plant I own. My order was sent rapidly with a little personalised note. Will order again!"
Anaïs Snijkers, Belgium · TrustpilotIn the wild, cacti and succulents grow in fast-draining, mineral ground. Regular potting soil holds water around the roots for days.
A gritty mix of pumice, grit, sand and zeolite drains fast and dries out quickly, the way these plants like it.

Get Manon's pick31 litres in total: 10L Universal mix, 9L fine pumice, 3L grit, 6L horticultural sand and 3L zeolite. Mix them to the recipe your cacti and succulents like.
Each SYBASoil mix is made for a plant type, like aroids, succulents or orchids. Not sure? Scan your plant above and we will recommend the right mix.
Repot once you notice any of these: roots growing out of the bottom of the pot, soil that dries very quickly between waterings, a plant that is top-heavy and wants to fall over, or roots pushing the plant up and out of its pot. For most houseplants that is every 1 to 2 years.
Peat compacts over time and can stop absorbing water. We use coconut fibre and worm castings instead, so the mix stays airy and usable for much longer. It is also better for the environment.
