- Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2025Size: 16 qt.Style: 2 PackVerified PurchaseThis was exactly what I needed for repotting my plants. The quality and drainage are excellent, and my new plants didn’t show any stress after repotting and they’re thriving! As a fun experiment, I even wrapped some in tissue and used it with my hydroponic plants. I know it’s not designed for that, but it’s actually working better than the sponge medium I had before. Very impressed and will definitely keep using this mix. Very easy to use, very healthy consistency.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2025Size: 2 CFStyle: 2 PackVerified PurchaseI snagged another pair of dirt bags, and let me tell you, the consistency was on point. Perfectly gritty, not too dusty, just good ol' classic dirt. I was really hoping for a surprise rock this time, but alas, it was a pure dirt experience. Talk about consistency, am I right?
I tried tasting it, but my mom told me not to.
Still, solid performance. 4.5 stars—minus half a star for the lack of geological surprises. Would recommend if you're looking for unadulterated dirt action.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2025Size: 16 qt.Style: 2 PackVerified PurchaseExcellent soil! My lemon tree has never looked better. Since switching to this mix, it’s thriving with stronger growth and vibrant leaves. Perfect balance of drainage and moisture. Highly recommend for citrus plants!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2025Size: 2 CFStyle: 2 PackVerified PurchaseGreat product I used it to cover grass seed and I’m impressed with the results. Unlike dirt that hardens this stuff stays loose and the sprout pokes through the surface with ease. Sometimes with dirt the sprout can’t poke through and eventually it dies off. On top of that this product seems to retain moisture well which is helpful when getting seed to germinate. Also works well with the plants I’ve transplanted.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2025Size: 8 qt.Style: 2 PackVerified PurchaseGreat for my plants.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2025Size: 8 qt.Style: 2 PackVerified PurchaseUsed this many times. It is the best potting soil around. Great price as well.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2025Size: 8 qt.Style: 2 PackVerified PurchaseMy flowers have been growing great all summer long. This is really good potting soil and gives my plants a 6 month supply of food for the summer. I would recommend to anyone. I will definitely again.

The best part is that it feeds them for up to 6 months, which means less work for mne. The blooms are vibrant and plentiful, adding so much color to my home and garden. It's perfect for both indoor and outdoor container plants. Highly recommend for anyone looking to give their plants a boost!
