    Answer This Question

    weight of sack of miracle gro garden soil

    By|Oct 16, 2026

      It depends on whether the bag has been sitting outside in the rain or if it has been kept dry. If the soil inside is bone dry it is around 15-20 lbs. If wet, it can be much heavier even 40 or more lbs. That's why Miracle Grow won't give an answer.

        Hello Celeste. Miracle-Gro Garden Soil All Purpose For In-Ground Use, other soils, and Potting mixes are sold based on volume rather than weight. They have varying levels of moisture which makes it impossible to give information on the weight of the finished product. Please reach out to our Customer Service team at 877-220-3089 for further assistance if needed.

          Answer This Question

          The coverage of Miracle-Gro Garden Soil All Purpose is dependent on the depth you're applying the soil as well as the area which you're covering. A 0.75 cu ft bag will cover 4.5 sq ft at a 2" depth.

              Is this good for planting fruit trees
              ByOct 6, 2026
              1 Answer | 
              Answer This Question

              Thank you for contacting us. Miracle-Gro Garden Soil All Purpose can be used with ornamental and edible plants. These products are best used by mixing in with the native soil. Do not backfill the planting hole of trees and shrubs with the straight product. This can prevent the roots from ever leaving the planting hole. Mix at least one-half native soil with the soil amendment before backfilling the planting hole. If you have any questions or if there's anything else we can do to assist you, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 877-220-3089. We're here to help!

                    Answer This Question

                    Hi Shane! Thanks for reaching out! Miracle Gro All Purpose Garden Soil can absolutely be used a top dressing for seeding. Best results are achieved by rototilling these products into native soils. When applying product to an existing lawn, strict depth limits must be followed to prevent turf damage. Do not use more than 1/4 inch (6 mm) of product at any one time. Multiple thin applications are safer than one heavy application to ensure proper aeration. If we can be of further assistance, please reach out to our Consumer Services team at 1-888-270-3714. We are available 8 AM EST - 8PM EST. We look forward to assisting you.

                      This Miranda Gro In Ground soil provides everything my garden needs.
                      by
                      I really liked this Miracle-Gro garden soil and was happy with how well it worked for my needs. It did exactly what I expected and made my gardening project easier. Overall, I’m pleased with the product and would buy it again. A good choice for anyone needing all-purpose garden soil for there yard.

                      Bought to amend the soil where I planted a few hydraengas. Given that they’re still alive two weeks later I’d say it’s off to a good start, given my usual black thumb. With luck they’ll survive the winter and in the spring we’ll see how effective this soil is.
                      by
                      Kind of have to beat it to get rid of the big chunks but looks fine. Bag is small enough that it is easy to handle. Plastic bag is easy to puncture to start pouring but of course that makes it easy to inadvertently puncture when putting it in your trunk. Price was very good too.

                      Have been using this soil in our flower garden as well as our vegetable garden yearly and always have beautiful response from all plants. I don’t fertilize enough and it doesn’t show. Even thru our drought and extreme temperatures my cherry tomatoes wouldn’t quit growing with this soil. It was impressive
                      by
                      I bought the first 10 bags to mix with shifted dirt for new flower beds. Soon found out how great this was for plant growth. I purchased 10 more bags and mixed it in with dirt in the yard and along walks and planted seed for the most thick healthy lush grass. It has a perfect mixture of soil and bark combination to hold seed in place during germination and rain wash. Includes a soil supporter that produces gourgous tomatos and flowers. I accidently found my go to power growing dirt mixer. Highly recommend.
