Must suck to be your Ts.

I'm quite liking a mix of cocofiber (75%), vermiculite (15%), and mixed mosses (10%) for my Ts. True spiders that are local to me get 40/40 potting soil and vermiculite, plus 20% "true dirt" including sticks, leaves and moss that's literally just a handful or two that I grab from whatever area is nearest to the spider. I do put this in the oven and sort through thoroughly before using, just in case there are little bugs or anything else unwanted like a dropped bit of rubbish or broken glass.

Didn't notice till it was already posted mate. If it irritates you just swipe the notification away, scroll by, ignore it. Sorry for what I'm sure is a terribly vast inconvenience

Naw dude, it cracks me up. Not the first time, won't be the last. All good

I use eco earth for all my Ts.

Great stuff and a lot of it!

Still using Silly Putty mixed with Q-tips and beach glass.

I use 75% cocofiber substrate and 25% peat moss. Have tried using vermiculite- it retains moisture a bit better, but doesn't look as pretty in my opinion. I've never had a problem with mold growing on the cocofiber as some people mentioned.

I use 2 to 2 to 1. So that’s two parts coconut fiber two part jungle mix and one part vermiculite. I’m still learning so I can’t say for sure if that’s best or maybe something is better.

I use 70% organic, safe, potting soil and 30% mulch... awesome for burrows
