7. Choose the Right Soil For Your Succulents

Choosing the wrong soil for your succulents could cause your succulents to rot and die very quickly. Succulents require good quality soil that drains excess water away, so yard dirt or regular potting soil won't do. If you are planting succulents in pots, use a special cactus potting soil that contains pumice, perlite or sand. You can also use this type of soil when planting succulents outside in the ground.
