I would say yes but u can wait and see why others say

#### Josie replied on 2024-04-04

I would say yes because the soils a bit compacted and it could probably use some fresh well draining soil. Soil/perlite/orchid bark is my recommendation for most house plants.

Yes I agree but what if people want a cheaper version that they can just buy instead of making there own

#### Josie replied on 2024-04-04

True, there are good mixes but at least in my area is cheaper to get them separate and mix. I get a much larger volume and I can control the ratios better.

Ya I just buy mix
