Ariocarpus and Astrophytum soil mixture

Post by Conophytum »

What the best soil mixture for Ariocarpuses and Astrophytums? I use all the same part, hammered limestone, perlite, and hammered granite. I just want to know because I'm getting a Ariocarpus and Astrophytum shipment.
mesembs are cool

Everyone has its own mix for those. I would add one part of some organics to components mentioned above.
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.
