# What is the best potting soil mix I can buy for my house plants? I’m…

_Sherryさんが2025-03-24に投稿しました_

What is the best potting soil mix I can buy for my house plants? I’m new to houseplants and I have 2 plants that isn’t doing good cause I think I put the wrong potting soil in the pots. So I use garden magic potting soil I’m not sure if that’s good or bad. Please any recommendations are appreciated. Thank you all.

What kind of plants are they? That will help with figuring out what soil you need.

Spider and heart leaf.

#### Indigoさんが2025-03-24に返信しました

Not too sure about the heart leaf, but the spider plant may just be too crowded. Mine seem happiest with 3 plants/babies in one pot, maybe separate that guy a bit but for soil I like potting mix with a little Pete moss. Hope that helps!

### Sherryさんが2025-03-24にコメントしました

And both of them isn’t doing good at all

Hi Sherry~do your pots have drainage holes?

#### Sherryさんが2025-03-24に返信しました

Yes I even added more holes.

### Sherryさんが2025-03-24にコメントしました

This is what I used when I repotted them.

Idk. I think they look good.

#### Sherryさんが2025-03-24に返信しました

Really? I sure hope so. Ugh! Maybe I just need to leave them alone. I hate being a beginner with plants but I love them I just hate that I don’t know what I’m doing lol

#### NamasteWithMyPlantsさんが2025-03-25に返信しました

I hear ya. I’ve killed many plants in my past b/c I always felt like I should be doing something. Main thing I’ve learned so far with plants/gardening is PATIENCE… it’s soo hard🤦🏻‍♀️

### Pups ‘n Plantsさんが2025-03-24にコメントしました

I think your potting mix should be just fine. Do your plants have lots of indirect bright light?

#### Sherryさんが2025-03-24に返信しました

Yes I don’t have many windows in my house so i take turns with the plants I’m going to bye a plant stand today and a growing lamp so hopefully that will help

### Pups ‘n Plantsさんが2025-03-24にコメントしました

Yes, a grow light will help!Your heart leaf may need a larger pot, too. When I can’t find answers, to foliage questions, I show pictures to our garden center professionals. That has always seemed helpful! Is your heart leaf dry, or wet, to the touch?

#### Sherryさんが2025-03-24に返信しました

It’s wet

### Pups ‘n Plantsさんが2025-03-24にコメントしました

Depending on your watering schedule, it may be overwatered. Or maybe you recently watered it. Either way, try letting it dry out between waterings. Water only when the top soil is very dry to the touch. That, and a larger pot 🤞🏻

#### Sherryさんが2025-03-24に返信しました

I will definitely do that. Thank you for all the advice and suggestions I sure appreciate it.

### Pups ‘n Plantsさんが2025-03-24にコメントしました

Good luck!
