Miracle-GroCactus/Palm & Citrus Potting Mix (8Qt)

Miracle-GroCactus/Palm & Citrus Potting Mix (8Qt)

Q: Cactus like poorer soil. Why would they add miracle grow for cactus? Wouldn't that be too much for cactus? Is it okay for aloe Vera?

Most cacti grow in sandy and/or rocky soil that drains off quickly. Many cacti have very shallow roots. That is why many cactus growers use shallow pots. Cacti and most succulents do not like to have wet roots. The roots will rot without proper drainage in a pot. This soil has peat moss as a major component. Peat holds in moisture. That is fine for someone that is growing young succulents but will not work for an adult plant. This soil will work if you are very careful to water sparingly. I add coarse sand, pumice, and more perlite for most of my cacti and succulents so that the roots do not sit in damp soil for a long time. If those cacti and succulents take in too much water they will die. Either the roots will start to rot or the plant takes in too much water cells burst and it dies. Would I want added synthetic supplements? No. I would prefer nutrition from real food. About 90% of supplements sold in this country in food for human consumption are synthetic. Not made from real food. Same is true for pet feed and fertilizer. They are also processed in that country that makes so many of the things that we need to buy.

Q: I'm rooting a palm in water. Will this work when it's time to plant?

A palm is a succulent so is a good fit for this potting mix. For best results amend it with a bit of vermiculite or perlite.
