Molly's Orchid Potting Mix Chunky Soil-Free for Indoor Orchids 5 Dry Quarts | Ideal for Orchid Pots. Premium Blend with Orchid Bark, Lava Rock, Akadama & Pumice. Creates Airflow & Prevents Overwatering.

My Mom recommended this to me (she also gifted me all of my plants, I wouldn’t have ever thought to buy them myself tbh, but now it’s a minor hobby of mine while at home). This stuff is really versatile, and can be used for a huge range of plants (especially if you combine it with other materials), although it is best for tropical plants that need aerated substrate but also need to be able to retain SOME water and be soil-like still (as opposed to pure orchid bark, moss or similar stuff). It’s very aerated and hard to over water; it drains well. I had a money tree that was dying of root rot back when I didn’t know what I was doing, and I repotted it with this soil and the tree came back a within a week or two. I probably won’t ever use a different mix for my monstera albo or money trees, I like this stuff. It looks and behaves like a chunky soil, so it’s easy to repot with (the plant won’t fall over when it’s dry like with orchid bark, for example). I’ve also checked my pH on my monstera with this and it’s neutral to slightly acidic, so it’s good to go. Like I said though, it somewhat resembles normal soil (albeit much chunkier) so when you use it, it will make a mess and get things dirty as opposed to orchid bark or something. So plan accordingly when replanting inside or whatever. Good stuff and very good value for the price IMO.

This is now the only brand I use for my succulents. It's excellent & they're thriving. Expensive, but definitely worth it.

This is a well made mix that is chunky and water retentive. I am impressed and will buy again when it is time to repot.

I use this soil for all of my plants and they love it! It’s a great size value for 10 quarts, compared to other products and the quality of ingredient is impressive. My plants are very healthy and haven’t had an issue with root rot since I switched. It makes repotting so simple. This does dry faster than regular soil so you may need to water more often in the summer. I have over 30 plants and still have some left over from repotting all of my plants.

I love this chunky soil. It's good quality and my Monsteras' thrive in it and my other plants as well. Pricey though, for just a medium size bag that will probably be used for one big planter, and not enough for another unless they are smaller, but as long as it works I will purchase because it will not attract those pesky fungus knats and bugs that live in the dirt if it's too moist. This soil avoids that. It doesn't retain water because it drains easily through the chunks. It looks great in the pot.

This stuff is really gritty and I think it is perfect for succulents like lithops. I top dressed mine with black lava rock as it helps fill in some of the gaps you get with this stuff. At times I found myself digging around for smaller pieces at the bottom of the supply bowl. I've tried their aroid mix with great result so I wanted to get a bag of this stuff. Unfortunately, they just do not have the 5qt bags so had to order two 3 qt bags which was kind of silly expensive (knocking a star off for that). They just canceled my first order days after placing it and I was forced to buy two 3qt bags for a batch of plants that was coming in, thanks a lot! Really, it's a nice mix and great for your lithops as you can water them a little here and there without worrying if they are going to explode because it dries in about 1-2 days. I plan to pick up some more of this stuff, but it is also kind of expensive for being a bag of mixed rocks.

Good mix of chunky soil exactly what I was looking for with the plants I have. My Monstera is happy! Priced well too.

Works well for any indoor plants that need proper drainage. Mix half with a good potting mix and half Molly’s aroid mix. Product is worth the price. My plants are doing well.

Beautiful soil mix and my plant is loving it!

Amazing product. I bought it when all my flowers were dead. After repotting, a few weeks later, my orchid grew some buds and one new sprig. Very happy with the purchase

This was the perfect mix for my needs.

Update : I really like this soil mix and my monsteras seem to like it too. I repotted 3 of my monsteras in that soil and they are now growing a lot of roots. No leaf yelloying. I first thought it was a very small bag for the price but the company offered me a refound, wich I did not accept because it's still a very good mix. Great company for sure. I am only leaving one star off because of the price, but the mix is excellent, promote root growth and drain well. hope it's good because that is a relly small bag for that price!

I have a few orchids that I had repotted with another orchid blend and found that my orchids were having trouble. I then search for what could be the best orchid medium I could use for my babies. I came across Molly's orchid potting mix and have to say the reviews are spot on and so happy I got it. I did not repot my orchids right away as I was also waiting for the pots with holes to come in. I received Molly's orchid mix on November 10th 2025 and it might have been a week later when I got to repotting all my orchids. The orchid I have in the photo is a new flower stalk about 4 weeks after repotting my orchid with Molly's orchid mix, amazing medium for orchids that for me, it is worth the price. The other orchids are doing exceptionally well with new air/bottom roots coming in as the old medium was causing fungus issues they did not have before repotting with that medium. Overall very happy with Molly's orchid blend, however the value is a tad high I will continue to buy it until the value exceeds my wallet, then I will have to make my own.
