Super Alkaline!!
You most likely will need to adjust the PH before you plant your plants.
I tested the soil ph out of the bag for this (left), and Miracle Grow all purpose potting soil (right). Shocking! But maybe that’s why everyone’s plants are dying on this?

Raised Garden soil, terrible results
The attractive price point was what had driven my wife and I to experiment with Kellogg's "Raised Bed & Potting Soil", after purchasing appx 48 bags for our new raised garden we diligently began the process of careful distribution, planting, and watering our gardens. Our results have been highly disappointing, to include yellowing, low yield, fungus, wood chips, and other anomalies. Will be going back to competitor brands.

Organic ?
Since you find pieces of plastic and other determined things, it already makes you doubt that kellogg has no reliable quality control.

Full of flies and mushrooms and compacts too much.
I bought 15 bags of this 'soil'. Each had strong odor. I use 1 and 5 gallon planters to grow in. Within days of transplanting the mushrooms began growing, AND, the little black flies also hatched. Now my entire grow is infested.
Unbelievable...
I dont know what to do. Start completely over, and sue for all my losses??
Ive got 1000's invested in strains and time growing off grid! Gas, several rounds of cuttings and teen plants that are barely growing, only because I added in dry fertilizer.

Kellogg Organic Potting Soil from Home Depot
This stuff is horrible, I thought it was going to be a really good soil for my vegetables and my flowers. I planted 89 pots and 2 large vegetable trugs with this stuff.18 vegetable plants out of those in April, We have had some cherry tomatoes and tomatoes but they are turning yellow and dying out.We’ve had 8 strawberries out of 3 plants.1 jalapeño never completely developed. 4 radishes that never fully formed,1 tiny tomatillo that never finished growing. No cucumber’s, no zucchini, no yellow neck squash, lettuce that has stayed the same size, 2 honeydew melons that are still growing from one plant and we have 2, but none on the other. Carrots aren’t forming, cilantro died, flowers died. Flowers that the color is pale from what it was when I bought them, stems are all yellow. I read in other reviews that people found that the soil lacks nutrients.Tomorrow I’m taking my soil in to a lab to get tested. I have bought over 45 bags of Kellogg brand and I filled all my existing pots, now they are dying also. Plants I have had for years. This makes me sick. I must have spent close $1,000 this year on plants, 1/2 barrels, soil, feed, lime oil, etc. Oh, I also have fungus growing in some of the pots. I’ve never had any of these issues in my years of gardening. I have done everything the same as I’ve always done. When I get that report I’m taking it to HD and requesting a full refund for the soil and expect them to reimburse me for the loss of plants. If anyone else is having the same issues please say something. It’s NOT YOU, ITS THE SOIL!! They cannot sell bad soil and get away with it. I cannot be the only person to have gotten stuck with rotten batches of soil. I have been so frustrated and upset with my garden and flowers, trying to figure out what I was doing wrong until I read the reviews and what others have gone through and knew it wasn’t just me. At least I didn’t get cut with glass in my soil or my grandkids when they helped. They are selling a bad product. Tell your story, please.

Yellowing leaves and stems are an indication the plants have used up the nutrients and those nutrients need to be replaced with regular fertilizing. We like to recommend adding an organic granular fertilizer at the time of planting to provide a slow release of nutrients since these get used up by the plant over time. Veggie plants for example, are heavy feeders and will not produce a very good crop without adding nutrients through the growing season. Doing so will ensure consistent plant growth and yield. Apply every 5-6 weeks during the growing season.

Great for dry desert areas
Works as intended, just added some extra perlite and good to go. I use it for my wine barrels and pots.
Sourced and made as near to you as we can get, for Fewer Miles Per Bag (MPB), helping reduce overall carbon emissions. We don't use peat moss, only sustainable ingredients. We use reclaimed organic ingredients like rice hulls and bark fines, for example, that may be destined for landfills. We age these materials and blend with other natural and organic nutrients to create organic soil that looks a little different, but grows awesome plants.
