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 Lithops soil. Add a small layer of Lithops mix at the bottom of the pot.
Place the plant in the pot, and slowly add Lithops soil to the sides to fill it up. Make sure that the point where the roots meet the plant is just buried under the Lithops soil.
Lightly pat the Lithops mix down into the pot. Make sure to water the Lithops mix thoroughly after repotting, as this helps settle the mix and roots down.
The lithops mix drains very quickly because of the perlite & pumice, the sand helps weigh the plants down and the small number of worm castings assist in holding onto a bit of water when you do water so that they have ample time to take a drink.
Lithops originate from rocky, sandy deserts where the sun is plenty and water is sparse. They rely on sparse rainfalls and some species even solely rely on mist! They thrive in well-draining soil consisting mainly of rocks & sand. This lithops mix mimics that environment
Lithops require very little water and nutrients. It is advised to only water your lithops once a month in the summer, and stop watering completely around the start of winter. A good way to check is if the lithops is starting to wrinkle, that means it is ready for another drink. It does not require a lot of fertilisers, but can be fed during the blooming season to encourage flower growth.
Lithops prefer lots of early morning sun, and partial shade during the afternoon. While they do need lots of light, the heat of the sun can cause burns & damage their foliage.
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 Lithops 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!

très bon mélange les lithops se portent bien et se développe tres bine je sais dorénavant ou acheter mes mélanges parfait !!!
Ich finde das Substrat für meine Pflanzen sehr gut. Ich habe es gemischt mit Sukkulentenerde um sie durchlässiger zu machen. Zur Anzucht hat es sehr gut funktioniert. Es wächst etwas. Nur weiß ich leider nicht was, da die erworbenen Samen nicht ganz rein waren.
Lithops sind auch dabei und die fühlen sich im Substrat wohl. Leider habe ich zu wenig bestellt und muß bei Gelegenheit nachordern.
Die Bestellung kam sehr pünktlich und gut verpackt bei mir an. Ich bin beeindruckt von der kurzen Lieferzeit.
Sehr gut von der Struktur
Je suis enchantée par le terreau spécial Lithops !
Parfait pour mes plantes, je le recommande !
Super snelle levering TOP
