Add lots of perlite and/or vermiculite if you want to root in it... rooting works best if there's lots of gas exchange (air and CO2) in the rooting zone. There is lots of info in lots of threads on here about rooting mixes, rooting chemistry, and that sort of thing. Search on rooting or just go search out threads posted by Tapla (he's a member here who has lost of expertise in soil requirements, rooting requirements, and things like that). (I think you can view the member list, find him, and look at postings he's made. Or you can just use the search function and read what he and others have said. I think there's good info in the reference section of the site too).
