    A one gallon of soil mix

    Posted by Robert Ramey on November 29, 2014

    I guess that one could give a bag of mix a 5 star rating if they've had a prior experience with bags of soil. I haven't but since I love my new Canebrake so much I figure a 5 star rating isn't too much to give.

    Works very well!

    Posted by Courtney Krueger on September 29, 2014

    Works very well! I keep the rest of the dirt next to the plants so I can add more as it compacts and breaks down. The perlite turns brown in my light but I think that is normal.

    The stuff works.

    The soil mix was needed to help nurse a venus flytrap back to health. The flytrap was purchased at a grocery store so you know it wasn't getting the best resources. I transplanted it to a new pot with this soil mix and I'm happy to say that it is doing quite well now.

    Perlite seems too large.

    Posted by Steve Foote on August 2, 2014

    The potting mix is of good quality. My only concern is that the perlite was too large fo the Droseras I repotted. I ended up straining the mix to filter out the larger perlite particles.
