Good potting soil

Great size. Great value. Nice to be able to find dirt in Amazon in the middle of winter. Finding none in my area. Again, thank you Amazon.

This soil is light and fluffy, top knotch soil. But too expensive 🫰

What can one say about potting mix? It's been a good product for yeas and continues to be.

Great product

So I get home today and see a box with a Lowe's logo on it and I'm thinking, I didn't order anything from Lowe's. I open it up to see it's the potting mix I bought on Amazon. I look at the packing slip to see that I basically paid someone $3 to order it from Lowe's and ship it to my address. That's what I get for being stubborn about buying everything from Amazon. Not complaining really, I just think it's ridiculous. Bought for my indoor herb garden. I found some feral mint and lemon balm growing in my lawn. You couldn't miss the aroma every time I mowed. Problem is my local soil is comprised of mostly fine gravel, sand and other fine particulate, which is terrible for potting. For those of you who have criticized that this mix is mostly peat moss and wood much, the reason they put that stuff in potting mix is that it retains moisture and doesn't become compacted. When a plant is trapped in a clay or plastic container, earthworms can't agitate the soil and it isn't well protected from evaporation, it just makes sense. Obviously, that depends on what type of plant you're growing. I've had a lot of good experience with Miracle-Gro, it's a reliable go-to brand. If you're experiencing issues with gnats, I've got an easy solution for you. Get a pouch of organic pipe tobacco, and use it to make "tobacco tea." Load that up in a spray bottle and liberally mist the soil of any offending planter. It'll take care of quite a few of common pest-insects. I would strongly ask you not to this with outdoor flowering plants though, as nicotine is also poisonous to honey bees, and they're having a hard enough time as it is. Despite being closely related to bees, I've learned that nicotine is totally ineffective against ants and termites. I'm not seeing any flies or gnats in my bag, and it's just the consistency I expected. Haven't yet had the time to use it yet, but I thoroughly expect good results. Mint and lemon balm grows like a weed. That's partly why I want to remove it from my lawn. But rather than killing it I figured I'll gently remove it and keep them contained. There's nothing like fresh mint tea!

I 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.
