Soil for young succulents

Post by capot1948 »

I started some succulent leaf cutting this past year and they're ready to be put into their own pots now I believe. What soil should I be putting them into?

I'd go with whatever you would put mature plants in. That depends to some extent on your climate and the particular species, but many like pure mineral mixes. Another option that's easier than sourcing materials for a custom mix might be half perlite and half cactus/succulent potting soil.

Thanks Mike, I haven't been to the forums in awhile and must have not checked 'email notification'. Apologies for the late reply.
