Blue stone: It has a certain water storage capacity and excellent breathability. Vermiculite: Good breathability and sterile. Perlite: Artificially processed, has good air permeability and is sterile. Coconut bran: Processed from the brown shell of coconut, it has good air permeability. Grass carbon soil: It is formed by the accumulation of rotten carbonization of organic matter. It has good air permeability and is neutral. Peat soil: Peat soil is further carbonized, has good air permeability and is neutral.

Blue stone

When cultivating succulents, a commonly used type of blue stone is pumice, plant stone, and pumice. It has a porous structure and a certain storage capacity. Water-based, highly breathable planting material.

Vermiculite

Vermiculite Believe It is also one that everyone often hears. It is made of mica processed at high temperature, has good air permeability and is sterile; but it is easily powdered and has extremely poor air permeability after powdering. It is recommended to use it temporarily during sowing, but it is best not to use it during planting.

Perlite

Perlite is A common type of soil for cultivating succulents, it is also artificially processed, has good air permeability and is sterile; it is also easily powdered and floats unsightly when watered.

Coconut bran

Coconut bran is It is processed from the palm shell of coconut. It has good air permeability and is slightly acidic, which is beneficial to the northern areas where the water quality is alkaline. But when planting succulents, you need to remove the fine powder inside.

< span>Grass carbon soil

Grass carbon soil is formed by the accumulation of rotten carbonization of organic matter. It has good air permeability, is neutral, and has certain nutrients, making it a good plant material. But when planting succulents, you need to remove the fine powder inside.

Peat soil

It is grass Carbon soil is further carbonized, has good air permeability, is neutral, and has no nutrients. It is a good plant material. But when planting succulents, you need to remove the fine powder inside.

Akadama soil

It is the accumulation of volcanic ash It forms a planting material with a porous structure and excellent air permeability. Contains a certain amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

Wood charcoal

It is wood burning It has a porous structure, no nutrients, and has strong antibacterial and adsorption effects on harmful substances. This is also a material suitable for growing succulents.

Carbon shell

It is rice The outer shell is carbonized at high temperature, contains a certain amount of phosphorus and potash fertilizer, has good air permeability, and has strong antibacterial and adsorption effects on harmful substances. But it also powders easily.

Sand

There are many kinds of sand , what we are talking about here is weathered sand on the mountain and large-grained (particle size above 1MM) gravel sand. These sands have good air permeability, and some contain trace elements such as quartz, iron, and magnesium, which are beneficial to the absorption of plants.

The above-mentioned plant materials should be selected when using them. Mix and remove the fine particles below 1MM, and prepare the same particle size according to the ratio of inorganic matter to organic matter of 7:3. In this way, the physiological needs of plants can be approached to the greatest extent. There are also some plant materials that can be used, such as honeycomb charcoal ash, fairy soil, and various herbivore fertilizers. Everyone can use it.
