    I've waited awhile to write a review in order to offer to potential buyers a hopefully more informative take on the product. I've used Fertile Ground when repotting a couple of alocasia and several string succulents. For reference, it's been about two weeks post-repotting of the alocasia, about one week post-repotting of the string succulents. All these plants are doing well, having sprouted new leaves.
