Great ready-to-use soil for raised beds that drain

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this in my raised garden beds and was pleasantly surprised by the quality. The soil has a nice fluffy texture and feels well balanced with organic material. It was easy to spread and didn't have big chunks like other bagged soils. I noticed soil retained moisture well while still draining properly. My spinach grew beautifully, the adjusted quickly and started to grow healthy within the first weeks.

Great Soil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this raised bed and garden soil a lot because it is easy to handle and it is loose and easy to spread around your raised bed or to use with your garden plants. Also I like this soil because it gives my plants the nutrients that they need to help grow bigger and stronger.

It too cold for me to use this yet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well, it's February in MN and we haven't even started our seeds quite yet so idk. I WILL be using this for my normal raised bed starters. Cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers. So, we shall see how this works for getting those babies going!

Can't wait to see my flowers grow this spring!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soil smelled very earthy, yet clean with no scent of any chemical pesticides or fertilizers. The consistency was great, no big chunks of bark, no hard solid clumps of dirt. This soil is light and airy, as well as very fine, no big chunks of organic material. It was also very easy to spread. I'm excited to see what my plants think of it as we get closer to spring!

Has Everything You Need.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful dark rich soil! There's snow outside and we wanted to temporarily pot this lovely Amaryllis a friend gave us. This soil was perfect for it. We even decided to get a start on sprouting some early crops in trays before the last frost.

Great raised bed soil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Back to the Roots Premium Hybrid Raised Bed and Garden Soil right before a large snowstorm in the middle of winter, so I haven't been able to use it yet in my outdoor planters as planned. That said, I did end up using some of it to re-pot one of my cacti. While this isn't the ideal soil type for cacti, it worked well enough as a temporary solution until I can switch to a more specialized mix. The soil itself feels high quality, rich, and well blended, and I'm confident it will perform really well in raised beds and outdoor planters once the weather warms up. I'm looking forward to putting it to proper use in the spring.

Pleased so far!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This soil came packaged very well without any holes in the bag spilling out any soil! Super easy to pack around my plants. I packed it around the new privacy trees I planted! Checked the pH level and I am impressed. Overall pleased with this soil so far.

Working for indoors basil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using for basil indoors and so far so good! It’s a bit of a rough time to have basil indoors (New England winter), but this soil along with grow lights has been keeping this basil alive! Highly recommend. Haven’t needed to fertilize yet either, it’s been about a month since I re-potted and it’s been steadily growing.

Garden

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My indoor garden was so happy to get this dirt. The amount of growth my vegetables saw was above and beyond what I expected. The texture of the dirt was perfect not too dry or wet. The way the tomatoes rapidly grew was the best part for me.
