soil for cuttings
I have this MiracleGro potting mix that is a blend of peat moss, coconut fibers, composited bark fines, perlite, a wetting agent, and fertilizer (.18-.10-.10). I also have a bag of pool filter sand #20. Can I mix these two for a cutting mix in z5?

Re: soil for cuttings
I wouldn't use a mix with fertilizer. That can burn the roots before they get large enough to support the cuttings. I use a 50/50 mix of coarse sand and sphagnum peat moss for most cuttings.
