Review: Superior potting soil for house plants. - Having been gardening for over 60 plus years indoors and out in TX my advice to you is that if you’re going to invest money, time and energy into gardening soil only use Miracle Gro for superior results. They have soil for every plant variety imaginable. This one is an excellent all purpose soil for most pot plants. That being said: It really does . . . Help with moisture control but don’t overwater. More plants are killed by overwatering because roots can’t get oxygen. Using a simple moisture meter inserted into the pot helps get correct watering and light needs. Feed plants for up to six months before needing to start supplemental fertilizing. Promote growth in indoor containers of houseplants and herbs. Each bag will fill two 8” containers. Work very well with plants under grow lights. Two bags of potting soil were received in excellent condition with no moisture or noticeable mold and was fresh with no bad odors. It appeared to be insect free. Crumbled easily in my hands and was very easy to worth with. Bags were packaged well with no spillage. This was a very good purchase.
