Using the mix is easy! start with removing as much of the old soil as possible. Gently squeeze the pot while holding it sideways to loosen up the plant. Run the roots under lukewarm tap water to remove the last pieces and bits.
Also, make sure to remove any dead foliage that may still be on the plant using scissors. Now your plant is ready for its fresh Orchid soil. Add a small layer of Orchid mix at the bottom of the pot.
Place the plant in the pot, and slowly add Orchid soil to the sides to fill it up. Make sure that the point where the roots meet the plant is just buried under the Orchid soil.
Lightly pat the Orchid mix down into the pot. Make sure to water the Orchid mix thoroughly after repotting, as this helps settle the mix and roots down.
This blend contains everything your orchid could be for. Orchids are a little different to most houseplants. As most orchids are epiphytes (plants that don't grow in soil) they prefer a substrate with lots of aeration and space.
To support this there is lots of orchid bark. The sphagnum moss helps retain humidity around the plant roots. Orchids will also do well in terrariums! The perfect general orchid mix.
Most orchids are found in tropical forests in Central America and South America. They have thick larger roots that need airflow and humidity to thrive.
While there are many types of orchids, we will outline a general care guide. Most orchids prefer bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight as it will scorch the leaves and flowers. Contrary to popular belief, orchids are pretty easy to care for.
Do note that if you decide to change up your mix, the more sphagnum there is, the less water it needs. Vice versa, the more bark, the more water it needs. Sphagnum holds onto the water for a longer period of time.
**Improved recipe with smaller orchid bark to fit smaller pots**
If the pot is differently shaped (Square, oval, e.t.c.), the calculations might not be accurate. You can also check out the plant pots product pages to check their total volume.

Check out this pot volume calculator tool to calculate how much Orchid mix you need.
The nutrients in SYBASoil will run out in ~6 months on average. We recommend refeeding by removing the top part of the soil and adding 10-20% of the volume with fresh worm castings.
You can store SYBASoil for about 2 years. Make sure to store it cool, dark and closed off. The effectiveness of the nutrients can degrade over the years. Simply add some fresh worm castings to give the soil new life.
We recommend repotting once any of these things happen:
- You see roots growing out of the bottom of the pot
- The soil dries very quickly between watering
- The plant is top-heavy and wants to fall over
- Roots are pushing the plant up and out of the container
- Every 1 to 2 years
Our packaging can be recycled at your local plastic recycling facility.
You can also re-use it for storage, or leave a little soil and use it as a propagation box!

My baby orchid just moved to a new large pot filled with this high quality ground - I can’t be happier for her. The bag created in a very convenient way that you can seal it after use.
Mijn orchideeën zitten al in Nieuw grond,en ze doen het heel goed.
Ze stralen van blijdschap.
j'ai connu sybotanica sur youtube en suivant certaines youtubeuses fan de plantes, sur des sites de vente comme Etsy, qui parlaient de toutes sortes de terreaux géniaux et de très bonnes qualités, a force d'entendre parler de sybotanica, j'ai finis par venir voir, et commander, pas encore asse de recule mais les plantes rempotées avec leurs terreaux ce portent très bien, on voit que c'est un terreau de bonne qualité, je pense, c'est meme sur de continuer avec sybotanica, je suis ravie, merci a vous :)
