    Black Gold - do not trust any other brands.
  

*by T***� on Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2020*

Started using Black Gold Cactus Soil in the early 70's, when it was 100% genuine soil and was really black. It was beautiful soil and unmatched in quality. Used to purchase it from my bonsai supplier in Manhattan and couldn't find it anywhere else.Sometime in the late 70's, the soil was getting harder to find. Finally, it came back, but was not the "original" Black Gold. As the years wore on, the composition kept changing. It was no longer that rich black soil. The composition grew lighter and was wary of it and started using a bonsai master's homemade mix, for cacti and succulents, in addition to my bonsai collection. (Collection of over 200 trees, plants and flowers, all grown indoors.)When the little bonsai shop closed, I lost my perfect soil and the search was on.Long story short, I came back to Black Gold after several years of trying other brands. I'm not 100% happy with the new "mixes", as opposed to real soil, but all my plants are thriving and I can't argue with that.I find it annoying to have to pay four times the cost if purchased locally, but due to current circumstances with C-19, wasn't left much of a choice.Bottom line, I use Black Gold Cactus, Organic Potting and African Violet Mixes. It may not be the original Black Gold from the 60's and 70's, but it is still the best commercial soil available.

    Inconsistent quality - nothing but sticks, perlite and gnats this time.
  

*by C***M on Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2020*

I thought that I loved black gold. The first time I ordered it, it was rich yet not heavy. I did have to amend it with pumice or perlite for better drainage.  No bugs in the soil. This time, it’s as if it is a completely different manufacture. It is nothing but perlite and sticks, along with fungus gnats. I would return it but unfortunately I am out of return window because I only needed it recently. I ordered TWO bags and I’m afraid to even open the other one. Fungus gnats happen in storage facilities etc. and while that is a huge pain, I’m more disappointed in the quality of the mix that I received compared to the previous bag I ordered.

    Horrible! Pest Infested! Different Product! Changed Blends! Crap Soil!
  

*by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2021*

My first order of this cactus mix on Dec. 15th was perfect! It is the second picture. Pine Bark, wood products, lava rock....great stuff. I ordered it again Jan 21st and it is horrible! Peat moss and perlite! Wet, moist and fungus gnats flew out of the bag. I have contacted Sun Gro about this inconsistency and they are looking into it. I have talked to several other people in succulent and cactus groups that are experiencing the same problem.  The bag labeled "Cactus Mix" is not cactus mix! It's potting soil.  I am sending this back and getting a refund. This is not good for cactus's and succulents because it stays wet for too long and does not dry quickly!
