Most succulents won't do well in straight Bonsai Jack. Try mixing Bonsai Jack and regular potting soil in a 2:1 ratio. On the other hand, particularly drought tolerant succulents like cacti, Haworthia and Lithops love straight Bonsai Jack soil.
Bonsai Jack soil does provide nutrients through pine coir. This provision isn't much, but drought tolerant succulents need very little in the way of nutrition.
