Horrible
Would Not RecommendLooks more like mulch than soil. planted seeds for herbs, babt basil plants and several flower plants already 4" tall from the nursery, ALL DEAD! Nothing grew. Not 1 survived. I have been doing this for fourty years and never have I had such terrible results.. I missed my return window so I guess I will eat the loss

Full of sticks and bark.

Lots of mulch

Way better than Miracle grow
This dirt is pretty great quality compared to miracle grow so I'll use this for the future. The Miracle grow I got earlier has glass, plastic, and 75% wood chips, fungus gnats. I recommend this brand

Buyer beware
Would Not RecommendPlease Please don’t be fooled by advertising on packaging. It is the worst product I’ve ever bought from Lowe’s. Full of wood chips. Ruined my vegetable bed. Turned everything yellow then died. After watering you’ll see all the wood chips come to the surface. Absolutely awful product Don’t be fooled.
Bad buy
Would Not RecommendBought a bunch of this thinking it would be good. NOT, It is terrible. Plants are struggling. I am heading out to buy other soil to replace all of this. What a waste of my hard earned money. Will never buy again! Not even worth 1 star!!
