How does this look for potting mix? 2:1 inorganic to organic. the inorganic is 3 parts pumice, 1 part lava rock, 1 part turface. organic is equal parts coco coir and bark chunks. I plan on using it for my indoor succulents, euphorbs, & cacti in 4" terra cotta pots. It looks very mineral heavy to me, but maybe thats ok?

I take a handful and put it in my mouth before crunching it down. It hurts my teeth. What was the question again?
Looks nice for a good majority of succulents. Lithops and similar might need a lot less organic.
Would work fine with lithops or conos. Would not recommend for larger cactus/ succulent because the pumice is too small. I would recommend a something a little bigger for larger plants 4-6mm should be a good size.
One more thing, Since you’re also using terracotta I would also recommend extra organic to help with water retention since terracotta wicks water. And will dry out quickly
