Have you enjoyed learning about the lifespan of succulents? Bonsai Jack is my indoor succulent soil. I have never been disappointed. To remove the soil, use a soft brush. Avoid standing water and prolonged periods of moist soil. Adjust Water for Pots - Soak the soil in a container that has drainage until water begins to emerge. Root rot is possible if you overwater the soil. You should let it dry out completely before watering again. It cannot survive in extreme cold. Succulents have survival mechanisms built in that allow them long-term survival under extreme conditions.
