Sybotanica Soil Mix Bags

Why would you choose SYBASoil over regular potting soil?

Happy and healthy plants

While soil can seem tedious at first, after seeing how it affects your plants, you won’t think twice about buying quality plant-specific soil! Apart from the great benefits SYBASoil has for your plants, it is also much better for nature. 

Want to know why? Read on!

The perfect mix

Each plant has specific care requirements. So, it would only be logical to give each plant a soil mix suited to its particular needs. While buying a regular mix and adding components to it can definitely work, it is a whole lot easier & more efficient to buy a plant-specific mix. This way, you are guaranteed that the blend is tailored to your plant. Your plants will thank you for it later! 

Coco coir instead of sphagnum peat

Most regular store-bought potting soils are made up of peat. While peat is an excellent base for soil, it is not a sustainable resource. Its harvesting has a negative influence on the peat bog ecosystems. There is another major drawback, peat becomes hydrophobic when it dries out. This means it becomes challenging to rehydrate your soil once it has dried out completely. 

Coco coir, like peat moss, is excellent for aeration and water retention. However, unlike peat, it is an entirely eco-friendly option. Coco coir also needs less water to achieve the same amount of hydration. It doesn’t dry out and can even be washed and reused after using it! 

Lastly, coco coir has an almost neutral PH of 7, making it an excellent base for a wide variety of plants. That’s why we exclusively use Coco coir as a base in SYBASoil. 

Filtering out the bad stuff

Rot, mold, and other nasty stuff can be very harmful to your plant. While preventing it altogether is quite complex, the addition of Activated Carbon powder helps remove toxins and harmful microorganisms in its porous structure. These excellent characteristics have earned it a spot in every SYBASoil mix. 

Only organic fertilizers

Most regular potting soils use either synthetic fertilizers or incomplete organic fertilizers. SYBASoil uses its fertilizer made up of worm castings in combination with organic fertilizers from DCM. This combination contains all nutrients from macro to trace elements your plants need to become happy.

It is a sustainable resource that doesn’t negatively affect the ecosystem, even if you were to use it in your garden. 

Made with love

SYBASoil is mixed entirely by hand. While it isn’t the most efficient way, it makes sure we can check each mix carefully for quality & consistency.

No plant left behind

While the 15 mixes we currently have covered a lot of plants. Obviously, there are still many more plants out there. To combat this, we have created the SYBASoil guide. Just type in the name of your plant, and the perfect mix will appear!
