Carnivorous Plant Soil Mix All Natural Perfect for Venus Fly Traps, Pitcher Plants, Butterworts, and Sundews 1 Quart 1-2 Small Plant Size Bag

I hesitated years before buying this. I decided I o go ahead and get it mainly because I was going to mix my own but concerned about possible fertilizer in the individual components I previously purchased. Big companies are always sneaking in the fertilizer and it makes me angry. But these guys can get non fertilized components direct from known suppliers so that makes me feel better. My VFT are doing great so far it’s been about a month and are looking better than they did in sphagnum moss.

Not only do my VFTs love this soil, my other carnivorous plants love it and are thriving. Soil looks like high quality stuff. My plants are healthy and thats all that matter, especially for the money you pay.

My fly traps live this soil! Drains nicely, I will be ordering more soon to repot my plants that are now to big to be in the same pot together!

Okay, first thing’s first, this is a very SMALL package of soil. Please understand what 1 quart is before you order, and order more if needed (I’d recommend 2 packages for a standard pot). Regardless of quantity, the soil is amazing and my Venus Flytraps have thrived in it with no issues. I layered sphagnum moss on the top for extra moisture hold and a visual appeal. Great product, will most likely purchase again!

High quality soil perfect for repotting my Venus Flytrap

So I bought this as a newbie to carnivorous plants I figured I'd give it a try since I'd prolly end up killing the plant anyways since its my first attempt (I'm no newbie to planting I do bonsai, desert terrariums and live water plants so I'm not a complete amateur) the plant wasn't doing good in the soil that it came in, I'm assuming they used regular tap water to water the plant DO NOT use tap water these plants need vitamin deficient water such as distilled, rain water works good also, anyways, I transplanted the plants broke them up into smaller groups and these plants since have thieved, growing more traps and all around just look as happy as a bug eating plant can, so I'm extremely happy with this soil my plants do great in it and when I purchase more carnivorous plants I'll definitely use this brand again in the future

I initially got this soil before I realized how easy it is to care for carnivorous plants. I thought they needed a special soil mix. For the price you are better off making your own. It has served its purpose and my venus fly trap has sent flowering stalks, but it's not a good value. You are better off mixing your own peat and perlite which will go further than this bag. Not a knock on the quality of this product, just not economic. That is my main reason for 3 stars, the value.

worked well for my flytrap, nice size bag for money, came spore free of what i can tell held water well, a bonus for flytraps....will buy again!!
