What Customers Are Saying

Many praise the rich texture, balanced nutrient content, and moisture retention without compacting. The exceptional value for cost is a dominant theme, with reviewers noting significant savings versus pricier brands.

Great potting soil
Excellent potting soil. I appreciate that the bag is not so large that it’s too heavy for me to move it at 77 years old. My plant seemed to thrive in it. So I do give it five stars.
High grade flower potting soil
Would RecommendI used this for starting new Rose of Sharon's. the Blooms are gorgeous!.
Top grade
Would RecommendI potted 100 Rose of Sharon's. This potting soil is A+. Light and holds moisture. No rot. I use this every year. Highly recommend.
Nothing will grow in it
Would Not RecommendI bought Sta-Green thinking I would save a few $$ over the leading brand. That was a big mistake! This stuff is coarsely ground wood and nothing can grow it in.

It is a disservice to customers to even stock this.
