Depends on What size particles the sand is.

My mix consists of particle size of 2-7mm for most pots and 2- 4 mm for minis.
Most Sand is finer than that and will clog up the holes in the soil and thus will actually be worse off.

Soil mixes are an art form in itself

Thanks. I should have read about soil before I did the repotting.

I just used some bunnings sand. Probably not the best as it is quite fine.

I ordered some hoop pines and bunya pines online and they arrived today. Look awesome. Thinking about getting some more hoops and making a Forest.

Thanks for all the advice guys,

My maple has new growth and is looking Alive!
