My potting soil smelled really strong of petroleum. I bought another bag same kind of soil from a different store and it also smelled really bad like gas. I didn’t use either one as that can’t be good for your plants. Typically this would be my go to soil.

My mother, who is a 50 year veteran of horticulture science and landscaping, introduced me to miracle gro moisture control. As a landscaping professional myself, I use only this product when creating my pots in the spring. It provides proper moisture and nutrition for my flowers and plants, controlling and keeping moisture in much longer than the other brands and formulas. Well worth the extra cost.

Lots of dense moisture-storing components in this mix. I'm mixing it 50/50 with desert soils and potting agave volunteers. So far, the agave look great. The mix is a little spongy until wet, and compacts well if just a little damp...I like that. Little pellets of nutrients are perfect...not too much.

This is the ONLY potting soil I will use. It really does what the package indicates. I use a moisture meter anyways, but I find out that I don't water my indoor plants as often as I used to. It is definitely moisture control! I highly recommend this potting soil.

Walmart advertised the potting soil for 5.55 and said it was reduced. The original price was 19.96, I thought I was getting a good deal!! Unfortunately when I got the bag of soil it was this tiny bag of potting soil!! If you can see where it says reduced from 19.96 to 5.55 it’s deceiving. For 19.96 I assumed it was a huge bag!!

I love the fact that you can have this big bag of moisture-control potting soil delivered right to your door. You do get a very large amount of potting soil for your money. It is definitely a very good buy, especially if you consider the fact that if you have purchases totaling at least $35, then there is no delivery fee on it.

This is great for Boston ferns. I've used this the past 2 years and the Boston ferns are bigger and fuller than using regualr potting soil and adding feeder every 2 weeks.! They look so healthy! And I find I don't have to water them as often. Highly recommend!

The potting soil is light and contains very few sticks and very little bark. It appears there is quite a bit of peat moss in the mixture. It has adequate amounts of Perlite. It seems to hold water fairly well, without staying too wet. It absorbs water quickly. It seems to have about the right amount of fertilizer. I do not have experience with it long term.

I bought several bags of this potting mix. My plants love it. I used it for outdoor plants including tomatoes. This mix keeps enough moisture, which is important to steady growth. I can see darker green leaves since I repotted my tomatoes into the mix. I wish Sam's Club had an organic potting mix also. The price was better than at the competitors.

This dirt is perfect for keeping a little under your pillow. You know, just in case he comes to town. I mean we all really don’t want him to take us down to his lair, deep under the mountain, right? Granted, maybe I should give him the rest of this dirt - it’s where he keeps his after all
