Hello: I am planning on potting some new houseplants (from cuttings) into new pots, and I wanted to know what is a good soil for indoor plants.

In the past, I have used potting mix that I bought in the stores like Home Depot, and although they seem to work, they are not the best drainers.

I have noticed that some plants that I bought from nurseries have very fast draining (and drying) soil, and quite different from the store bought potting soil. I have also read that soils for cactus are good for indoor plants because they drain well.

Any suggestions as to what I should use? I would prefer a store bought variety, but am open to suggestions, happy to mix different mediums if necessary.

:thankyou:
