Killed any plant we potted with this mix
Do not buy! I purchased several expensive plants and all of them died with this soil. We used it for plants we had for months and needed a bigger pot and some new ones from home depot. What a waste of money and its not like we can get our money back. The soil also looks like it has mold after watering.

    Moldy like powder
    For this being $7 for a little bag I was kind of disappointed. When I opened my first bag it had this strong moldy smell along with white powdery substance. I thought maybe it was just in the top so I proceeded to take out the soil and sadly the whole bag looked like that. Glad the other three bags I got were fine.

    We are sorry to hear about your experience with Vigoro Potting Mix and appreciate your feedback.

    Fungal mold spores including mushroom producing fungus are a natural part of soils and mulch. It just takes the right conditions for the spores to develop into a fungus or mold. In fact, fungus mold has been scientifically proven to improve the growth of plants by releasing nutrients from the organic material that growing media are typically. We do not sterilize our growing media as microorganisms are an important component of growing media. The fungus mold only becomes a problem if there is an overgrowth. Overgrowth occurs when the soil mulch is too wet. Keep in mind that mold and fungus on growing media or mulch will go away with sunlight and air circulation.

    We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please call 877-220-3089 for assistance.

        The soild was great for potting early season cuttings to transplant for spring. It had a nice “soil consistency and not wood twigs and peat like some others. Overall a nice alternative to teh higher priced potting soils.

        So far so good. Have just started using it but seems to work well for my tomato and basil plants.

        Too soon to really know. Haven\t used it all yet, but so far everything is ok. Seems to be a very good product for the home gardener. And of course, won't really know until the growing season gets underway and we we see the results--the flowers & veggies. Especially looking forward to the veggie harvest & compare to prior years..
