    • It Works Great For Succulent Type Plants
Size: 2 quart
This product works great for plants that need excellent drainage! I currently have 2 ZZ plants and 4 Peperomia plants potted up in custom mixes using various combinations of this product and regular potting soil. All of them are thriving. This mix is a bit on the expensive side, but I trust this brand more than I do Miracle Gro, and you've got to do what you've got to do. ... show more

    • Lithops love it.
Size: 2 quart
Review Image by Dan Luna Dan Luna
I was not having any luck with starting my lithops out in other succulent soil mixes. I tend to overwater. I tried Bonsai Jack and they are all healthy and thriving. It drains really well and is ideal for the lithops. Note that I have a cactus and some succulents in this pot and they are doing well also. ... show more

I’m an avid gardener and decided this looked like something new to try and maybe it would keep me from overwatering my succulents. I really love this product so far. I just ordered my 3rd bag. I planted one succulent about 6 weeks ago and it’s doing great. I also used it mixed with some other ingredients to stretch it out a little as I had about 15 or so succulents to plant. I recommend using it alone or with some additives it has really beefun to use and my plants love it. I recommend. ... show more

    • Worked Great, No Fillers, Really Expensive!
Size: 2 quart
Review Image by LeighLeiben LeighLeiben
I saw this particular soil blend mentioned on a blog about succulent care and best ways to grow them. I'd been having some trouble with new succulents I'd had shipped to the *very cold* Northeastern US and kept losing them to drafts and lack of sunlight (despite using a grow light and keeping them away from drafty windows). So I looked into a better soil and decided that despite the very high price for such a small bag...it was worth a shot. We got about 17 new succulents and a few Cacti to plant all in different styles and sizes of planters....some in groups, some by themselves from a new seller on Amazon and didn't want to risk losing all of our plants again by using the "branded", cheaper succulent soil we'd tried the first time. The only problem was that 2 Quarts of this soil wasn't quite enough, so we used gravel on the bottom of the very large/deep pots....then a tiny bit of the *old* branded soil that we thought had contributed to our troubles with the last succulents (just to fill in) and then used this entire bag of the Bonsai Jack soil as the primary on all of them. The bag was empty after planting 17 succulents and cacti....but we feel it was worth it because our succulents are still thriving a few weeks later. We ARE using 2 grow lights now and are watering more frequently because the Bonsai Jack soil isn't clumpy or dense like branded types are. It doesn't have the dreaded "peat" blends and is basically like a fine, dry mulch. We are finding that this "mulch" style is much better for our succulents, but since it allows much faster and more efficient drainage....we are also finding we need to really keep an eye on the plants for limp pieces because we water in smaller amounts at a time, but more frequently with this soil. We water 2 times per week minimum using this, but we're talking a few squeezes of a water bottle....not "spraying" or saturating them. Overall, I'd say if your plants aren't growing well/are suffering....get this! It really helped us keep all 17 plants (so far) without losing one when we'd previously lost 4 out of 4. But I cannot give 5 stars because the price seems pretty outrageous to me. I understand this is hand-blended and contains no fillers....but it's not like it's treated with some sort of expensive hormone or magic dust. It's still just soil. I'd purchase again, but only in an "emergency" mostly due to the pricing. And would recommend that if you *can* perhaps line the bottoms of larger pots with the cheaper stuff and some gravel and then use this for the main level. Even a coupon on occasion to "stock up" would be great. Overall, this is top notch stuff, though so if you want the "good stuff" you have to open up your wallet! ... show more

I like the size of the particles, good for even small plants. I use 2 parts Bonsai Jack to 1 part Miracle-Gro cacti succulent soil for all of my succulents and snake plants and they are all thriving in my west facing window.

    • The only soil you need for succulents
Size: 2 Gallon (8 Dry Quarts)
I have a succulent arrangement business on the side. I only use this soil bc any other soil will give you problems. It is also attractive. This company really knows what it’s doing as I received my soil via FedEx very quickly. They also included a cool and handy tool to use.
