Trichocereus Substrate Mix
£2.95 – £17.95
Please select which option you would like between Premium and Standard. The Standard mix is perfectly great for most people, the premium version just has some added inorganic components (Azomite etc) but are pricey now so I have to charge extra for it.
Choosing the right substrate composition is quite important as it needs to be nutrient rich while still very high draining. Cacti like a wet / dry rotation so the substrate mix needs to be gritty to allow for drainage and for the roots to dry out quickly.
This substrate mix is the best that has worked for me personally. All ingredients are carefully and sustainably sourced.
The mix has 3 goals in common:
- Gritty and free draining
- Retains water without being “wet”
- Rich in minerals
There is nothing stopping you from buying the components individually and making your own substrate mix, I am just offering some pre made mixes for ease of use and not having to spend a fortune buying everything individually.

Outstanding service and a great place to shop for all you cactus needs.
A++++
He said he felt bad prior about the delivery fee based on my order and gave me a extra bonus.... With anticipation I was curious to what he'd send wether it was seeds or a seedling, no Byron thought I'd think that xD and decided to give a beautiful hybrid cut that I'm sure to cherish forever <3 local love from a local business. Screw amazon!
I’m glad he was received well. You’ve made this journey much easier and it is appreciated ?
Originally I changed my mind on my order, and Bryon gave me a refund straight away.
I reordered a bundle and I wasn't at all let down with the quality when delivered. It was very well. Packed, and was also a fast delivery.
I did need some basic information at first which was replied to within minutes of asking, and also received emails with trips and information on seeds and seedlings.
I honestly consider this some of the best customer service I've ever received, and I'd definitely be using this site in the near future (once I make some room)
Thank you for the amazing review and I am really happy you had a good purchasing experience ?
