do succulents need a lot of soil Cactus and Succulent Soil Mix: The Ultimate Pro Mix FormulaGrowing a healthy cactus and succulents has always been a bit of a challenge. These desert loving plants thrive in well drained soil that mimics their natural habitat, where water quickly seeps through sandy, porous ground. Poorly drained soil can lead to water retention, root rot, and other problems that stunt growth. That's why, after many years of experience, we have developed a soil mix that is ideal for growing strong and healthy cacti.

Growing a healthy cactus and succulents has always been a bit of a challenge. These desert-loving plants thrive in well-drained soil that mimics their natural habitat, where water quickly seeps through sandy, porous ground. Poorly drained soil can lead to water retention, root rot, and other problems that stunt growth. That's why, after many years of experience, we have developed a soil mix that is ideal for growing strong and healthy cacti.

Introducing Our Pro Mix Formula

Our premium soil mix is the result of years of experience and research in plant care. It combines an organic substrate enriched with mycorrhizae, which supports robust root system development, with carefully balanced inorganic media to ensure superior drainage and ventilation. This thoughtful blend promotes healthy growth, reduces water-related issues, and mimics the natural arid environments these plants love.

Benefits of Our Cactus and Succulent Soil Mix


  • Optimal Drainage: Designed to dry out faster than general-purpose, peat-based mixes, preventing overwatering and water retention.
  • Ventilation for Roots: The inorganic components create air pockets, ensuring roots receive adequate oxygen for healthier growth.
  • Prevents Common Problems: Reduces the risk of root rot, algae, and fungus gnats by maintaining proper moisture levels.
  • Adaptable to Conditions: Performs well in low-light environments and high-humidity conditions, making it versatile for various growing settings.
  • Improved Nutrient Uptake: Helps leach excess fertilizer salts during watering, ensuring a balanced nutrient supply.

Why We Use Mycorrhizae and Why It Matters

Our mix is enriched with mycorrhizae endomycorrhizal fungi (Glomus intraradices), which form a symbiotic relationship with plant roots. This addition enhances nutrient absorption, improves overall plant health, and boosts flower or fruit yields.

We Only Use Premium Ingredients

Our soil mix is made with 5 high-quality ingredients to ensure the best results:

  1. Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss: Provides structure and organic matter.
  2. Perlite (Horticultural Grade): Enhances aeration and drainage.
  3. Dolomitic and Calcitic Limestone: Balances pH for optimal growth.
  4. Wetting Agent: Ensures even water distribution.
  5. Mycorrhizae Endomycorrhizal Fungi: Supports strong root development.

Final Thoughts

Whether you're nurturing a sprawling cactus, a delicate succulent, or an entire collection, our soil mix is designed to help your plants flourish. Its quick-drying properties make it ideal for desert plants that prefer dry conditions, reducing the risks of overwatering while providing the nutrients they need to thrive. Give your cacti and succulents the perfect foundation for growth with our Cactus and Succulent Soil Mix. Ensure well-drained soil, healthier plants, and a vibrant collection that thrives year-round!

Great for Sensitive Skin
Color: Non-Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My face has always been sensitive to sunscreens, so I have to be careful with what I use on my face. (Others can cause burning sensations). This sunscreen is great. I had no issues, and unlike other sunscreens, sweat running didn't cause my eyes to burn or water which was great. Keeps my skin protected against the hot Florida sun, so it works!

And the crowd goes mild
Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I had heard such great things but I’m really left a little disappointed. I got the light tinted version, and it’s much darker than anticipated. And the smell is not great. It kind of smells like my grandpa’s trailer and not in a nice, nostalgic way. As a sunscreen though, I have no complaints. The protection is great and at the end of the day that’s what I really need out of this.

Such a great new product from Sun Bum
New product from Sun Bum - love it! I gave it a try after getting a bit too much sun on my arms and chest at a soccer game and it worked great. So soothing and calming. Takes the sting off right away and reduces the redness. This will become a staple in my bag for me and the kids this summer.

Good after-sun spray
The pros: We have used this a couple of times after getting more sun than we wanted, and it seems to work as advertised. It has a cooling feel to it, and seems to soothe the skin well. It's not greasy and it absorbs well -- I didn't notice I had it on it after initially putting it on. It doesn't have a glow or shine to it. It also has a very minor fragrance -- not one that's noticeable. The size is great; you can take it with you on vacation and even put it in your carry-on. Perhaps most important, I am glad for the more natural ingredients involved -- ones that aren't toxic. The cons: It's a little expensive, as most sun bum products are. And it seems to work well, but I feel like aloe works similarly.

Great Hypochlorous Spray!
I love Sun Bum and I regularly use hypochlorous acid in my skincare routine, so I was stoked to try this! First, I have sensitive skin that’s prone to redness, dryness, and acne. Hypochlorous acid has been a godsend on days where I need a toner step but my skin doesn’t want to tolerate anything. Hypochlorous acid is also great for acne healing and prevention. On top of all of that, it’s good for general skin healing so this can definitely be used on the rest of your body wherever your skin may be irritated (please use common sense here lol). There’s no scent which is great and exactly what you’d want in a hypochlorous acid spray. The way it feels is comparable to magic molecules hypochlorous acid spray, which is what I’ve been using until receiving this one to try. It’s like a very watery toner. The spray itself is a fine mist and doesn’t feel like getting blasted in the face lol. It takes maybe 30 seconds to a minute to dry down after spraying a few sprays on your face, just depending how dry your skin and climate are. It’s a great base for literally any other skincare and it’s also a great refresher to spray on top of other products during the day. It really does it all. As far as value, I will say even though the price is comparable, you get more with magic molecules. I’ve included some photos to compare the bottle size. While I’m thrilled to try this for free, I don’t think I would repurchase unless it was on sale/better value than the MM version. It is a cute little bottle and looks good with my other skincare, just in case that’s something you care about. The bottle is fully plastic - no glass. Some may prefer that and some not. I find it really easy for chucking in my bag/traveling. I haven’t noticed any issues with leaking although I truthfully haven’t traveled with it that much. I’m giving this 5 stars because it’s a really solid choice for a hypochlorous acid from a great brand and it’s sensitive skin friendly!
