Succulent Market receive many emails a week inquiring about cactus and succulent soil and if there is a way to purchase cactus and succulent soil from their retail site.

         Why is there a demand for cactus and succulent soil?

When primarily thinking about how to pot a cactus or succulent in a new pot or planter one would most likely attempt to use a general potting soil from a large retailer like Home Depot or Lowes. Surprisingly, utilizing a general potting soil can be detrimental to cactus and succulent plants. This is because cactus and succulents are drought tolerant plants that enjoy dry arid climates. This means that cactus and succulents require a soil that can quickly drains water, this is because if cactus and succulents are planted in a regular potting mix too much water will accumulate in the soil, which will cause the cactus or succulent to rot. For this reason, succulents need a sandy soil that can get rid of excess water quickly. This will allow cactus and succulents to receive water and air, while not simply just drowning in a soil that is too moist.
