Dr.Soil recipe for Cactus & Succulents Substrate is designed to provide all the necessary elements for the harmonious development of the plant, as close to its natural environment as possible, ensuring the three essential elements of their development:

- Maximum ventilation of the roots: the fine granulation of the mixture provides maximum ventilation of the roots, being at the same time a very good drainage growing media. The high content of premium pine bark prevents the damaging and molding of the roots and helps the evaporation of excess water.

- Natural fertilization & immunity: the new Dr.Soil’s formula for Cacti & succulents ensures good immunity for the plants, increasing their resistance to stressful situations, diseases and bacterial pathologies.
- Stimulation of healthy growth of the roots: the mixture of concentrated biohumus and organic matter guarantees a healthy growth. The biohumus dose in the composition stimulates the regeneration and flowering of the plant, providing the required amount of nutrients for up to 6 months.
