Tank's-Pro Cactus & Succulent Mix 16 qt Bag [amazon]

 

Anybody tried this stuff? I ran some numbers and it's basically the same cost if I mixed the same stuff myself. 

 

Sorry the link is being stupid --- 

Tank’s Pro Cactus and Succulent Mix is ideal for cacti, succulents, adeniums, or any species that enjoys fast draining soil . This mix focuses on high porosity and super aeration to eliminate root rot, and mitigate the effects of over-watering. Great for all sizes of containers, in-ground use may vary depending on plant variety. Tank’s Pro Cactus and Succulent Mix was designed with the help of Tucson’s best cacti growers, and is used at the Tucson Botanical Garden and Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix. INGREDIENTS: Prococo Chips (coconut coir), Horticultural Pumice, and Tank’s 100% Organic Compost.

Box showed up today. I haven't even looked at it, I start another new job tomorrow at 6am. Maybe this weekend I'll repot the c. Plumosa in one of the big ugly pots I found in the barn.

Good stuff! And just to reiterate that if you were to buy the same ingredients and mix yourself, you'd spend the same amount of money.
