Biochar Blend for Cactus & Succulents

How to use

Use straight as a ready-to-use potting mix for cactus and succulent containers, or mix equal parts blend and cactus or succulent potting soil by volume.

One scoop of each makes a 50/50 mix. For larger or unusual projects, contact Wakefield for product help.

Measure your mix

For the equal-parts option, use the same scoop or bucket: one of this blend plus one of cactus or succulent potting soil makes two parts finished mix. Measure by volume, not weight. If using the blend straight in a container, no additional soil is needed.

Planting in containers

1. Choose a container with drainage holes. If blending, combine the two materials thoroughly in a separate container before filling the pot.
2. Position the plant, add the blend or prepared mix around the roots, and gently firm it. Leave about an inch below the rim for watering.
3. Follow the watering and repotting directions for your cactus or succulent. Let watering needs be guided by the plant and the condition of the mix.
