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 Bonsai soil. Add a small layer of Bonsai mix at the bottom of the pot.
Place the plant in the pot, and slowly add Bonsai soil to the sides to fill it up. Make sure that the point where the roots meet the plant is just buried under the Bonsai soil.
Lightly pat the Bonsai mix down into the pot. Make sure to water the Bonsai mix thoroughly after repotting, as this helps settle the mix and roots down.
Bonsai are very delicate plants that need the best quality care available to thrive. The bonsai mix should not get hard when dry and have a good amount of aeration and drainage. The addition of pumice & perlite supplies this.
The lava rock helps with the structure of the roots and weighs them down, stopping your bonsai from getting top-heavy.
While bonsai don’t exactly come from nature, they do have a specific substrate requirement. This Japanese art form keeps the trees small, usually also in mini-containers compared to the large root system the plant develops in the wild. Gritty and quick-draining soil is key for the success of your bonsai. This Bonsai mix has it all!
Bonsai trees are more delicate than your average houseplant. Note that it is tree-specific, and we will only give you some basics to go by.
Fertilising regularly during the growing season is a must, the root system & soil volume is small, so nutrients go quickly. To combat this, the Bonsai Mix has worm castings added in, which release nutrients slowly into the bonsai mix.
For the perfect watering schedule, do some research on the type of tree you have. As for light requirements, bright indirect light is best for most, but again, do research on your specific tree.
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.

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!
Water the soil only when the top 2-3cm of the soil is dried out. You can test this out by poking your finger in the soil to feel around.
It is fine to let it dry out a bit more sometimes if you forget it as the deeper soil will retain moisture for longer. This will also help the roots to grow deeper.

I finally found an excellent substrate for my outdoor and indoor bonsai. I am very satisfied with the work they are doing. This is already my second order! Top!
Het is een goede mix, als je zelf niet alle ingredienten voorhanden hebt,
Wel is de witte perliet storend als toplaag, ik dek het af met akadama
Hi H,
Dank voor je review! Bedoel je hiermee dat het perliet naar boven drijft? Het werkt goed om de pot van onder water te geven, dan voorkom je het probleem dat je een compleet witte laag van perliet bovenaan je plant krijgt.
Je Akadama oplossing is ook een goeie!

Heb al 3 binnen bonsai's verpot ( die buitenbonsai's moeten nog een beetje wachten) en ik moet zeggen dat ze het echt goed doen , potgrond is zeker aan te raden , zie foto's( heb wel een beetje andere grond eronder gemend) kan niet wachten tot ik de andere ook kan verpotten (een stuk of 15)
Bon produit
Goede aanvullende potgrond
Fijn dat de potgrond beviel! Gezien de twee sterren zouden we graag weten wat er nog beter kan om jou en je planten blij te maken. Ik neem via de mail contact met je op.

Die Erde ist Top, nur der Verkäufer sollte nicht mehr mit dpd zusammen arbeiten. Wir wissen alle wie DPD arbeitet ??????
Hallo Batman,
Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung und das Teilen Ihres Feedbacks mit uns. Nach vielen Tests und Recherchen sind wir zu dem Schluss gekommen, dass DPD derzeit der beste Transporter ist. Wir planen, in Zukunft mehrere Transporter einzusetzen, sind aber noch nicht so weit.
Wenn Sie Präferenzen für andere Transportunternehmen haben, teilen Sie uns dies bitte mit, da wir Ihre Meinung gerne in unsere Entscheidungsfindung einbeziehen würden.
