## Overview

This 2.5-pound bag of Lithops Soil is a fast-draining, inorganic substrate designed specifically for Mesembs, Cacti, and Succulents. It provides the perfect environment for root development with its varied grit size, ensuring your plants thrive without the risk of root desiccation.

## Description



## Features

- The ORIGINAL Lithops/Mesemb blend! PLANT NOT INCLUDED.
- Perfect for Lithops, Pleiospilos Split Rock, Fenestraria Baby Toes, Faucaria Tiger Jaws and other Mesembs. Also works great for Haworthia and Cacti
- 2.25 pounds (approx 1.65 dry quarts) will come in a heat sealed zip top bag.
- Enough to fill either THIRTEEN x 2-inch pots OR EIGHT x 3-inch pots OR FOUR x 4-inch pots
- There are NO organics in this mix. It is completely inorganic without bark which is NOT suitable for Lithops. There also isn't any perlite which, when used in excess, causes root desiccation. Grit size varies from fine to 3/16" which is crucial to feeder root development. If the particles are all the same size, gaps of air are created which can hinder root growth.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the ingredients?**
A: The exact formula is proprietary, but I can tell you that this substrate includes 41 variations of top tier, premium ingredients.  This formula has been tweaked and adjusted for over 4 years and IS the ultimate substrate for your plants. :)

**Q: Can I use for my succulents as well?**
A: Yes, Definitely! Many other succulents aren't quite as averse to water as lithops, so I usually mix in some regular potting soil or succulent soil as well so that there is organic matter available for their roots but they still have the free-draining aspect that they prefer.

**Q: Is this all I need for a lithops plants? ready to use?**
A: Yes! This substrate is ready to use right out of the bag and comes with a getting started guide which will help you get your mesembs rooted.  You can use a low nitrogen fertilizer diluted to 1/32 when you drench your plants in their growing season.

**Q: Is $32 too much? What did everyone else pay?**
A: Hey there! The current price is indeed $32 per bag. This includes my labor to make it by hand, ingredient cost, shipping and fees (plus current inflation).  If you would like more than one bag, please head over to our Etsy where it's easier to buy multiples. :)

    They did the work.
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2022*

I've got to say, this is expensive BUT, I completely understand why! "If" you don't have a lot of pots to fill, this is definitely the way to go. I got it and was surprised at how little it was for the price so I decided to make my own. Well, after getting a set of sifters and the "ingredients" (which was not easy & I didn't get even close to 44 or however many they use), it adds up pretty quickly.$$  The labor involved in sifting out all the different ingredients, then mixing the matching sizes, it's quite the task! Again, this doesn't include all that they use in this mix. Time will tell if those extra ingredients will make a difference or not.So if you have a fairly small collection, this is definitely the way to go.
