Product Overview
Steer manure compost helps give your in-ground flowers, landscaping beds, and vegetable gardens the foundation they need to thrive. By amending your yard's native soil with this organic blend of aged and screened composted manure, you'll help promote healthy vegetation and growth. Steer manure naturally contains nitrogen, an essential nutrient plants require to grow healthy roots and stems. And because it contains little to no weeds, it's the perfect outdoor soil amendment for seeding grass. Compost manure blend also helps maintain soil moisture and aeration for better growing conditions.

How many bags in a Pallet?
Asked by Sandra June 2, 20203
AnswersIf I remember right they are stacked about 15 bags high and 5 bags per level. If that is true that would make 75 bags per pallet. But I`m just guessing. I would call your local store and ask someone in the garden section for help.
I just put fruit trees on the soil today. Can I use this compost right away?
Asked by Bisou May 6, 20205
AnswersIt is not compost, it is manure. Only a portion of what compost is made of. This was fairly broken down already but I would dilute it with top soil at a minimum. 50/50 would be fine.

Lots of sticks
First the brand name is Grow King at the store not Earthgro. It says Steer Manure as the main label, but mentions manure and compost in the ingredients. It is not compost. Real compost looks like coffee grounds, not chunks of wood. It's supposed to be good to put on top of an over seeded lawn, but we sifted the chunks of wood out because they would be hard to mow. We were looking for pure Steer Manure like the label says.

I ordered manure blend for pickup and received straight steer manure when I arrived. I have purchased both in the past many times at Peoria Home Depot and the Grow King brand straight steer manure is cheaper.

Not Sterile
I used 2 bags in my garden. Now I have a lawn growing in my garden and I will have to spend an entire day removing each blade by hand. this might be great for a lawn fertilizer, don't use it in your garden.

I built my wife raised gardens 5 years ago and we have been battling my poor choice of initial soil from a local whole-seller ever sense, it was almost poisonous it was so bad!. This is the best soil builder product we have tried so far and we are looking forward to a vigorous healthy garden this year. We own horses but you don't want to use horse manure in your planting area or you will have nothing but weeds.
I give this 4 1/2 stars... Yes there are some sticks and small rocks in it, and out of 10 bags we found 2 small pieces of white plastic bag it but its not that big of deal, and except for the plastic, all adds to soil aeration.. If you have ever been around any soil processing operations you will know how hard it is to avoid such minor inclusions in the final product and plastic litter is a world wide problem anymore and also tough to avoid.
We put all 10 bags in one bed so we have about 40 more to get this season, We will definitely continue buying this stuff.

I moved to a place that had sandy/rocky soil with little to no life. It's a large area, so I needed lots of soil. Instead of buying tons of topsoil, I opted to buy manure that I could blend with the current soil and pray for the best. At first I thought this product was too smelly for my liking. After 5 days the smell went away. My plants love this stuff and I do too. Who would have know that I could say I love manure.

This Add is Misleading - HomeDepot does Not sell "EARTHGRO Steer Manure" - Earthgro steer manure is a great product and HomeDepot used to sell it years ago - They have since replaced it with a cheap knockoff Call "GROW KING steer manure" - Which is absolute garbage - it's 90% wood chips and filler - it seems to do nothing to help the soil or the plants - Avoid "Grow King" - HOMEDEPOT: Please bring back Earthgro Steer Manure! -or- change the picture in this Add..
