For those serious plant parents, we've got you a 12.5L Indoor Mix

Give your indoor plants the best start with our premium 12.5L Indoor Potting Mix. Specially formulated for life in pots, this blend balances moisture retention with airflow, so roots don’t get waterlogged or starved of oxygen. The result? Stronger, healthier plants that thrive indoors.

Because it’s fertiliser-free, you get full control over how and when to feed your plants — no hidden additives, just the perfect foundation for growth. And with its lightweight, free-draining texture, this mix makes repotting simple while keeping your plants happier for longer.

Why you’ll love it

Lightweight & porous – roots get the airflow they need to stay strong.
Fertiliser-free – you’re in charge of feeding, for better results.
Resealable bag – fresher for longer, less mess, easy storage.
Versatile blend – crafted for most indoor and potted plants.
Pest protection – includes a horticultural-grade granular insecticide to keep fungus gnats away for up to 6 months after bagging.
Jumbo 12.5L size – perfect for mass repotting

Storage - Store in a cool, dark place when not in use.

PRODUCT PACKING WILL BE DIFFERENT TO WHAT IS PICTURED

Stir through some Soil & Microbe Booster when repotting for even better results.

FAQ

Does this mix contain fertiliser?

Nope. Our mix is fertiliser-free so you stay in control of feeding. Pair it with a complete liquid fertiliser (like The Plant Runner Indoor Plant Food) for best results.

Is this mix safe for all indoor plants?

Yes — it’s a versatile blend that suits most indoor and potted plants, from leafy greens to flowering varieties.

Why is there an insecticide in the mix?

We’ve added a horticultural-grade granular insecticide (Acelepryn GR) to keep fungus gnats out of your soil. It’s active for up to 6 months, giving you gnat-free confidence.

Can I use this mix outdoors?

You can, but it’s designed for indoor plants in pots. For outdoor gardening, you may prefer a mix formulated for garden beds or larger containers.

How should I store the bag once opened?

Seal it back up and keep it in a cool, dark spot. The resealable bag helps keep your mix fresh and easy to store.

Is the potting mix hazardous?

Yes. Like all premium potting mixes, it’s classified as hazardous. Always wear gloves, wash your hands after use, and follow the safety instructions on the bag.

Great

I always buy from this company because their soil is guaranteed to be insect-free. In the past, when I purchased soil from Bunnings Warehouse, I consistently had issues with fungus gnats and even cockroaches.

Now, whenever I buy a plant from Bunnings, I bring it home, wash off all the original soil immediately, and repot it using soil from The Plant Runner. I don’t risk leaving plants in the original soil anymore — I did that once before and the gnat infestation became so overwhelming that I eventually had to throw away all my plants.

The soil from The Plant Runner is absolutely lovely. My plants genuinely seem so much happier and healthier in it. I regularly purchase their soil and care combos and use them as needed.

They’ve recently updated the packaging — the soil quality remains just as amazing — but the new clear bags no longer show the photo instructions on the back with recommended plant types, which I used to really love. That said, all the information is still available on their website.

Highly recommend! 🌿

It’s just a go to, been buying for years and my plants are so happy

Indoor plant potting mix

Great delivery time and service. Love the potting mix

Even bigger bags please!

I love that there is a graphic on the back of the bag of which plants would love this, really helps with figuring out what kind of plant family I can take care of with just one mix. Have had no issues with gnats or pests since changing to this mix and every plant has thrived using the plant runner mix, food and microbe booster. I know this is already the big bag but would love an even bigger bag for big plant families. Just put an order in for 2 more bags as the plants just can't get enough! Well done and the ordering/shipping/customer care has always been fantastic.
