The substrate is basically a 50/50 mix of play sand and top soil, with a few scoops of leaf mulch mixed into each bucket. I put a small amount of pine straw, dead leaves, crumbled bark, and small sticks on top for aesthetic purposes. And, there's about 2" of pea gravel underneath it all to act as a drainage layer.
