Terrarium Potting Soil Mix with Charcoal K982

This blend is a mixture of coco coir, pumice, and horticultural charcoal. This is a great blend for growing ferns, African violets, and other popular terrarium or fairy garden plants. With these ingredients, you get great drainage, nutrient retention, water retention, and harbor healthy bacteria to break down toxins. TIP: For closed-top terrariums, plants should be compact, humidity-loving and low-light compatible. Good choices are mosses and ferns, as well as orchids, bromeliads and many other easy-to-find houseplants. Avoid plants that prefer bright light and low humidity such as cactuses, succulents and most herbs [though mint is okay] — this 2nd group of plants work well in an open-top terrarium. Our soil mix will work with either type of terrarium.
