Questions & Answers

Is this certified organic?

Asked by: Amanda
NO WAY. I purchased a number of bags for the first time this year and it was full of garbage - landfill type garbage! Broken glass, pieces of plastic, rusty wire twist ties, etc, etc.

what are the ingrediants in natures care

The bag I bought was black-dyed wood chunks, not actual compost.

Since this contains yard waste and food waste, is it safe to use on vegetables and other food crops?

Asked by: Tony123
I bought a bag to see what was inside before I bought a large quantity for this same purpose. I would not use it on food crops. My bag contained hard, uncomposted wood chunks that were suspiciously black in color. I suspect they were dyed black to make them resemble compost but that dye may not be safe for edibles.

I purchased 3 bags of this compost last night to amend garden soil for a new rose garden. I sifted the content this afternoon prior to mixing it with native soil. First sift was 1" and the second round was through 1/2" mesh. After sifting 1 bag, I ended up with the equivalent of a 1/5 of bag being just large twigs, shredded plastic material, and tons of river rocks and pebbles. I know this is inexpensive, but despite its price I feel that this product is just junk. The quality does not match the most mediocre commercial compost sold. Dear Miracle-Gro, do better!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not my fave It's a worse quality and higher price than other composts. I just emptied it into my garden yesterday, and there were dozens of plastic pieces, I was picking them out everywhere. And there were lots of big sticks that were not even close to broken down yet. Would be fine if it wasn't one of the more expensive ones.

It's only been two weeks since I planted my seedlings into my raised bed and they have quadrupled in size and are setting their first fruits already. This stuff is incredible. I used this mix and equal parts the nature's care organic potting mix and that was all the amendments I needed.

I put down 9 bags in a raised bed in May and the compost came out of the bags like solid bricks. I tried to break it up but it was like chopping bricks - absolutely unworkable. Thinking it was because it had gotten damp at The Home Depot maybe, I watered it all with the hose to break it up. I was already regretting buying this product, but my thoughts were that the water would break it up and then in a day or two all would be good. When I went back to it and started to loosen it up, I began to find lots of garbage! Broken glass, shards of glass, soft plastic, hard plastic, rusty old twist ties. I was shocked. It looks like it all came from a LANDFILL! And after a few days of sitting there, the entire bed was full of MUSHROOMS! This is in my vegetable garden now so I am very upset. I wrote to Scotts and asked 1. is this product SAFE for my vegetable garden and 2, where is the source of the product. They responded with a canned form letter "sorry to hear that the product did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is extremely valuable - bla bla bla...…" and made NO effort to answer my two important questions. See the attached photo of what I have pulled out of this compost. How manipulative to name it "Really Good Compost" because nothing could be further from the truth.

It is better described as black-dyed ground up wood chunks. If you need a product to loosen up heavy clay soil for non-edible plantings or if you need mulch, this would be ok, but if you are expecting actual compost and know what completed compost is, this is not for you. I need compost to amend soil in a vegetable garden and thankfully, I bought only one bag to check it out. I would not feel safe using this product in a garden bed where food is grown. The fact that these hard wood chunks are solid black indicates to me that they are dyed to give the uninitiated the impression that they are holding "black gold" compost, but it's really just chunks of black wood. Shame on Miracle Gro for selling a bag of snake-oil.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Horrible product, waste of money! Horrible product. I wish I had read some of the reviews before purchasing. I would strongly recommend using no compost at all over using this. I have multiple raised tomato beds in my garden. One had Coast of Maine Quoddy Blend Lobster Compost added, one had Black Kow and one had Nature's Care. Some other containers have garden soil and potting soil with no compost. All the tomatoes are growing - except the Nature's Care plants. They are tiny, thin, yellow and sickly. The Coast of Maine compost tomatoes look the best, then the potting soil, then the black kow and plain soil are more of a tie, but the Nature's Care plants look absolutely horrible. I can't believe I wasted so much money on their product. Also, the Home Depot salesperson said that it was "organic compost." It's not even close. There was so much shredded plastic and other debris in the bags, sticks that clearly had not broken down yet, and one bag had mold. It says "organic matter" on the front of the bag, which is not the same as organic. I wish I had paid more attention instead of listening to the recommendation from the salesperson. I am attaching a photo. The bed on the left is Coast of Maine. The bed on the right is Nature's Care.
