Member's Mark Potting Mix Planting Soil, 55 Quarts

Member's Mark Potting Mix Planting Soil, 55 Quarts has turned the top soil green from algae after the rain on all of my potted outdoor plants. :(

Yes that is from the mix having too much water. which will happen with any mix that gets too much water that way. Please remove the top layer of soil and then add back new. If we need to assist please call our customer service at 800-285-7333. We will get you some new soil to replace the top layer ! Thanks !

No soil , mostly ground up mulch and sticks

Used a lot of this last year, No problem. This year it is not the same product it was last year. Has a lot of junk in it (sticks etc) Very unhappy with this product' Miracle Gro is much better.

Seems more like mulch than soil

I bought a couple bags of this a few weeks ago. It seems more like mulch than potting soil. It even smells very woody. The flowers I planted in this are not thriving. Many seems to slowly be dying.

Not good. Won’t buy again.

I took a chance on this MM potting soil and regret it. As other reviews state it is full of wood pieces and really chunky. It’s not good for starting seeds or potting plants. If you’re using it outdoors it should be ok.

mulch!

This should NOT be called potting soil. It does not look like the soil pictured on the bag. It is nothing more than bark chips and roots with a bit of Pearlite mixed in. No soil to be seen. Use it if you need mulch. Otherwise, stay clear.

Potting Mix?? Really??

This material is a poor excuse for potting mix (soil). It's more like pine bark mulch with a little sphagnum peat moss and a sprinkle of vermiculite. Definitely will not buy again.

Too much peat

This product is lightweight because it contains peat. Peat has little to no nutrients and needs extra fertilizer. It also requires a wetting agent because as it dries out it actually repels water even more. No bueno.

Not the best, okay

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This potting mix had a lot of large bark pieces in it that I didn’t like. Kind of like mulch instead of regular potting soils. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend unless you were planting things that need a lot of drainage.

What potting soil should be

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great soil, no big chunks in there. It comes with a "wetting agent" which helps make it water more easily. I just wish the bag was a bit less bulky and stronger material because it starting ripping in the store.

Great Pootting Mix at a Great Price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This potting mix was just what my plants needed. It added a boost to my gardening and gave my plants and flowers all of what they need to thrive. The price is unbeatable for the large quantity of product. I will definitely be buying and using this brand from now on.
