What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this potting soil for excellent plant growth, robust results, and strong value compared to premium alternatives. Many report thriving houseplants and vegetables, with several crediting the included fertilizer for eliminating additional feeding needs. However, a notable group expresses frustration with inconsistent texture, describing it as predominantly wood chips or dry sandy dirt rather than traditional soil. Some report plant damage, visible mold, or soil gnats. Despite these concerns, most customers consider the affordability and growth results worthwhile.

Great Soil

Would Recommend

Love the soil! My plants thrive and grow luscious with this product Service was horrible!! Set my items at curb by my neighbors curb. I’m handicap so I thought home delivery would benefit me, can’t move items myself, so hopefully no one thinks they’re giveaways

Too much wood filler

Would Not Recommend

This soil although a seemingly good value, has a high wood content which robs plants of nitrogen.

Worst soil I have ever used

Would Not Recommend

this is by far the worst soil I have ever used. I have been gardening for years and this soil killed everything planted in it. The amount of fertilizer in this is ridiculous. If you do get it, mix it with other plain soil. Otherwise everything you plant in it will wither and die with in a few weeks.

It's not a soil but a bag of dead trees.

Would Not Recommend

I bought this when I ran out of my premium organic potting soil for my last two remaining tomato plants needed to be repotted. I opened the bag and saw tree barks and mulch with a sprinkle of soil inside, and I'm not even exaggerating. At 7 weeks, all my tomatoes from my premium soil grew perfectly well and started to flower. Those two tomato plants planted in the Sta Green? Their growth were stunted, overall color is yellow green, new growth are all curled up, and both are dying. Save your mo...

Finely Shredded Mulch

Would Not Recommend

I would not buy this unless you enjoy paying for potting soil and getting finally shredded mulch instead. I would give it zero stars if I could.

Well I tried it

Would Not Recommend

Soil appeared fine, worked well for awhile but - and YES I am aware that potting soil normally has mushrooms in it BUT - the sheer amount of mushrooms coming out of this soil - I normally let them go because they don’t hurt anything but these were so many and damaging my plants and I could not keep up with it. I had this in an elevated planter on my deck, which I put some strawberry plants in. Nearly every single day overnight hundreds and hundreds of ink caps would come up and before I could s...

Mulch, not potting mix!

Would Not Recommend

I've used this product for several years but just started noticing on the last few bags that the mix contained rocks, roots, and other junk. The last bag I got actually has more bark mulch in it than potting mix!
