Back to the Roots 100% Organic Succulent & Cacti Mix (6 Quart) | Made in the USA | Premium Nutrition for Indoor and Outdoor Plants

I used the Back to The Roots 100% Organic Succulent & Cacti Mix for my African Milk Plant and a few of my smaller cacti, and it has worked beautifully so far. The texture is exactly what you want in a cactus mix. It’s light, gritty, and well draining without feeling dusty or overly chunky. Water flows through easily, which is crucial for succulents that hate sitting in soggy soil. Since repotting, my African Milk Plant has stayed firm and happy with no signs of root rot or stress. I also appreciate that it’s organic. It gives me peace of mind knowing I’m not adding unnecessary chemicals to my plants, especially when I keep some indoors. If you’re repotting succulents or cacti and want a ready-to-use mix that drains properly and supports healthy roots, this is a solid option. Great consistency, easy to work with, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. 🌱

I really like this succulent mix. It drains well, which is a must. I keep many cactus and succulents and I'm always looking for good soil. This nutrient rich formula is working really well so far. I'm not used to paying this price for a small bag, but for the sake of convenience I would do it again. I normally buy large bags from the big garden centers in town, but was unable to find it when I needed it. I took a chance on this and I'm glad I did. I had a lot of small transplanting projects to do, so the small bag was just perfect. There were a lot of complaints in the reviews about gnats and fungus being in the soil. I can tell you from experience that that can happen with any soil from anywhere. It's always a crap shoot when you buy a bag of soil and open it up. Gnats and fungus spores can get in the soil at the manufacturing facility, in the warehouse where they're stored, or even while they're in a truck being delivered somewhere. I wouldn't fault the company for having these problems. Sometimes you could open a bag of soil and put it in your garage or shed and all it takes is one gnat to come lay an egg or one fungus spore and you're whole bag can be spoiled. I got lucky with this particular bag. No complaints here! Another issue I saw in the reviews was that people were unhappy with the little bits of wood found in the soil. This soil actually comes with aged bark (it says it on the bag), so little bits of wood is to be expected. A lot of cactus mix comes with bits of wood, so I'm used to it. If someone didn't like it, they could easily pick the pieces out and throw them away. Again, no complaints here! In the future, if I need a small bag of soil I would absolutely purchase this again. I'm quite happy with it! :)

I switched to this organic mix for my succulents, and I'm happy with it so far. My plants look fresh, healthy, and seem to be doing really well.

I’ve tried a few different succulent soils before, and this one has worked really well for my plants. The texture feels light and gritty, which is exactly what you want for succulents and cacti since it drains quickly and doesn’t stay soggy after watering. I repotted several plants using this mix and noticed they adjusted pretty fast with no signs of overwatering or root stress. It also doesn’t have that strong chemical smell some soils have, which I appreciate when using it indoors. The bag was clean with very few large wood pieces, and I didn’t need to mix in extra perlite right away like I’ve had to do with other brands. For beginners especially, it’s convenient because it’s ready to use straight out of the bag. Overall, a solid organic mix that makes repotting simple and keeps succulents happy. I’ll definitely buy it again.

I thought this was good potting mix for my succulents, but there were some big pieces of wood and some pieces of sticks that I had to pull out. (Not a big deal, but noteworthy.) Overall, I was satisfied with it. I was amazed at quickly it arrived! There is enough here to last me a long time, and if I ever run out, I'll definitely buy again.

This mix was perfect for my small cactus collection. It was easy to use, and my plants have adjusted well since I switched their soil.

I used this mix for my small cactus collection, and I'm happy with it so far. It has a nice texture, drains quickly, and my plants look healthy after repotting.

I suppose this works, unfortunately I experienced gnats which I read are inborn in the soil. I was not going to order another product to get rid of them. Threw out succulents and ALL. However, since then, my son in law told me to add peroxide to the water. 🤷‍♀️
