@leafittoandy: My chunky potting mix recipe, start to finish. 🌱 This is the mix I use for most of my aroids and houseplants to help improve drainage, airflow, and root health. What ingredients are in your go-to potting mix? #PlantCare #planttips #houseplants #pottingsoil #chunkysoilmix
Will the mix have an exp date? Is it good to store it for a while ? I personally like the idea of what you did but most prob won’t finish the mix for like maybe half a year

The ratio isnt chunky enough for your aroids more for terrestrials, calatheas, fittonias, and ferns. The ratio for aroids/epiphytes is 1:2 or possible 1:1 of moisture absorbing based and chunky amendments

How do you store your container of soil ? Inside, outside ? In light ?
