Forbidden Cereal is here to shake things up with its super-chunky vibe that looks straight out of a breakfast bowl but packs serious punch against overwatering disasters. Water drains like a dream through our blend, giving roots all the oxygen they crave to dodge root rot, droopy yellow leaves, nutrient fails, and sluggish growth. We've ditched soggy peat and soil for renewable ingredients that keep moisture in check without the headaches, plus it tweaks water to a perfect neutral pH for ideal plant fertilizer uptake.

Loaded with 8 top-shelf organic ingredients: think hand-picked, heat-treated Douglas Fir bark (Orchid Bark), a mix of fine and coarse Perlite for structure, triple-rinsed Coco Coir with fibers and chips for grip, Horticultural Charcoal (aka Biochar), nutrient-rich Worm Castings , earthy LECA Expanded Clay Balls, and premium New Zealand Sphagnum Moss.

Oh, and that moss? We keep it separate on top so you can get creative – surround the root ball, mix it in for even moisture retention, use it as a top dressing, or propagate like a pro. This mix is your go-to for every plant, inside or out.

Our potting mix is optimized to grow and support all indoor & outdoor potted plants. Popular plants include Monstera, Pothos, Snake Plant, ZZ Plant, Fiddle Leaf Fig, Philodendron, Peace Lily, Alocasia, Anthurium, Dracaena, Hoya, Orchids, Spider Plant, Aloe Vera, Rubber Plants, Diffenbachia, Orchids and more!

This bag fills approximately three 6” pots and nine 4” pots.
