Why cacti and succulents need a gritty mix

In 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.

  • Everything for a gritty desert mix in one box: 31 litres
  • Universal mix, fine pumice, grit, horticultural sand and zeolite
  • Mix it to your own recipe

Questions

What's in the DIY Desert Mix Bundle?

31 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.

Which mix do I need?

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.

When do I repot my plant?

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.

Why is the soil peat-free?

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.
