Review: Good dirt for succulents - Just transplanted many of my succulents using this dirt and have not lost any. 11 days later in decided to move one into another pot and was amazed how much roots had developed. The soil drains well but still allowing succulents to get just the right amount of water. I’ve been watering them every 4-5 days, but using very small amount of water per container. Love the quality and appearance of this cacti’s soil. Worth the investment.
Review: Cactus Mix great, cactus & succulent mix not so much! - So frustrating that I’ve purchased 3 bags of this on separate occasions. The first bag was the cactus mix, absolutely perfect. It’s gritty, airy, and doesn’t hold moisture in. The 2nd bag was the mix and I didn’t realize it until I transplanted a number of plants. I hate this mix. It’s absolutely moisture retaining. The 3rd bag which arrived today, was also a mix. The listing is for the cactus soil but the sellers will send you a mix so make sure you pay attention. The cactus soil is perfect, I repeat the cactus only soil is perfection.. but the cactus and succulent mix is trash. I’m sending the 3rd bag back, as there’s no way in hell I’m using it. There’s no way gnats can survive in this cactus soil bc it dries exceptionally well while giving the plants what they need. I just use a fertilizer or worm castings to feed, I don’t do any other amendments.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would you recommend adding perlite for more drainage or would that be overkill?**
A: It wouldn't be overkill, just cut the Black Gold by 50% with perlite and the outcome is great.

**Q: Can I use this to start Aloe vera seeds?**
A: Yes, you can use this successfully to start Aloe Vera seeds.  Be patient, though, because it will take a loooooooong time from planting a seed to getting a plant.  Aloe Vera is so common I would get a couple of good sized plants and let them send off pups for reproduction purposes.

**Q: How many small to medium size pots will 4 quarts of your soil fill?**
A: 4" pot 3 per quart
6" pot almost two per quart

**Q: Would this soil be good for a ponytail palm and a snake plant?**
A: Not sure about a palm but a snake plant is a succulent and needs well draining soil so this should work.  I use this soil for all my succulents.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent soil, however west coast and east coast type varies.
*by M***Y on June 15, 2019*

I love Black gold cactus and succulent mix. However I am very careful where I order mine from because depending on what area it comes from the formula may vary big time. I order mine from a place that ships from the west coast, the formula is always consistent. I am very disappointed with the formula sold for the East coast. It's so full of bark and there is no pumice only Perlite, not to mention it takes forever to dry out. I bought two bags at the beginning of the season from my local green house. The bags weighed a ton, I was so annoyed to see nothing but soaking wet bark chips and few bits of perlite. I learned from a Facebook plant group about the difference in soil by region, and it is true.
