Rocks and mulch
Very disappointed in the quality. This was mulch and rocks garbage. I can’t believe any one would carry this brand.

    Not good compost for garden
    I purchased 5 pallets of this product, was excited to use in my garden. After everything started coming up, it burst into young plants then stopped. The leaves all turn yellow and are producing no vegetables, the corn is stunted. Melons and zucchini and squash are stunted. My tomatoes died. Found out this product used manure that has had weed killer.... not happy at all

      CLAY not compost and manure
      I bought 4 bags, the first bag is more than 40% clay, in huge hard masses. Annoyed with all the clay that just got dumped into my loamy soil. Will not use the other 3 bags.

        Mixed feelings
        I bought this product 3 different times. The first was simply to check out the quality, so I only bought 2 bags. I was very pleased with the product, so bought 15 more bags; again, great quality. I was about to run out so I bought 4 more bags. The last bags I bought looked like mulch with some dirt thrown in. Obviously, quality control is far lacking with this product. I suggest you find a bag that meets your needs, then buy from the same pallet to keep the quality you want. Very mixed feeling about this stuff.

          This is not compost. This is mulch, rocks, and dirt. Would not recommend this product. Bought 60 bags and returned 50. Would say to spend a little extra if you are looking for a quality product. I wouldn’t use this for anything in my garden or lawn.

          Using as part of my raised bed mix. Found a bit of plastic bag type material in it, not nearly as much as some of the reviews I read. So far, so good.

          I've been using this product regularly over the years as a mulch for my tomato beds. It's an excellent soil improvement mulch and plant starter. It's a better buy than the Miracle Grow products and works just as well.

          Probably the best all purpose gardening product that I use regularly. I enrich flower/shrub beds, make my own potting soil by adding peat moss and slow release fertilizer (90 day), fill in low spots in the yard along with some top soil, etc.. This is really a top quality product at a more than affordable price. I am solidly sold on this! Thank You Home Depot.

          Product pictured is not exactly what is in the bags. Bags have move visable wood chips. Bags are easy enough to manage ,even with injuries. You do not need a knife or instrument to open the bags. For the purpose of blending with other manures this is not a bad product. It served it's intended purpose. Pictured below it is mixed with bunny berries to plant red seed potatoes. I use this product to also top up my garden pots.

          It's really good, I have planted diverse kind of plants and everything is ok. All planted is growing faster and healthy. I planted papaya, dragon fruit, hot peppers, basil, pepermpepp, mint. Material organic is good, also have something like mulch and sand. I'm having used by more than a year, and never disappoint me.

          I’ve used this product for years.
          This stuff is great. It is composted manure so you are not going to see chunks of manure in the product. And no, it is no longer hot because it is fully composted. I’ve had great luck with the product. I have used it in the past to amend my 3000 sq fr vegetable garden in spots. At other times, I have planted correctly into the product. It is absolutely wonderful. It’s a great product at a reasonable price.

              Put this on some areas of my lawn that were not doing well. In about 3 weeks began to see the grass reaching out to cover those areas.

              Great product
              The composted manure worked great on areas of my lawn that are distressed. It spread very well. The curbside pickup process with Rhonda and Skip was simply great.
