I've been using the FoxFarm Ocean Forest Potting Soil Mix for several seasons now, and it never ceases to amaze me. Whether for indoor houseplants or my outdoor vegetable garden, this soil has become my go-to for ensuring healthy, vigorous plant growth. The texture of the soil is perfect - a rich, loamy mix that holds moisture well yet drains beautifully, ensuring that roots never sit in water. I've noticed a significant difference in root development; plants grow more robust and healthier compared to other potting mixes I've tried. One of the standout features of this soil is its blend of natural fertilizers. It's like giving your plants a balanced diet full of all the nutrients they need to thrive from the get-go. I've seen remarkable growth in both flowering plants and edibles, with vibrant blooms and bountiful yields. Using FoxFarm Ocean Forest has simplified my gardening routine. I no longer have to mix in additional fertilizers or amend the soil to get it 'just right.' It's ready to use straight from the bag, saving me time and effort. This aspect alone makes it worth every penny, but when you add the results into the equation, it's an unbeatable value. Another plus is the consistent quality. Every bag I've purchased over the years has met the same high standards, providing peace of mind that my plants are getting the best possible start.

This may not be the best value for the money, but I needed to repot some plants and am not able to go to the plant store right now (where I could have gotten this for half the price). I use Fox Farms soil with some additives like peat moss, coco coir, orchid bark, river rocks, and extra perlite. I’ve been doing this for over year and all my plants have done well. It gives a good balance of moisture retention with space for the roots to breathe and prevent root rot. Perhaps most importantly to me though, is that I have never gotten gnats from Fox Farms soil like I have from every single bag of Miracle Gro I’ve ever used.

Only trust FoxFarm anywhere near my soil!!!! I'm someone who knows nothing about gardening. I barely got into it like 6 months ago, and somehow managed to grow this. I firmly believe by having a good base of soil it set me up for success. Bought this produce twice now, and will buy it again Although, I do notice I have tiny bugs in my soil. I'm not sure if it's from this soil, or the FoxFarm jump start fertilizer, or what. Either way, I don't mind bc my plants are thriving, and I kinda think having some bugs in there helps to keep them healthier anyway

Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil: It smells like good potting type soil. No off odor noted. Feels good in my hands. I would describe it as light loamy compost with perilite. It is what I was hoping for and expecting. The consistency was the same throughout the bags. Both bags that I received appeared and felt the same. I did not measure the amount, both bags felt equal and appeared to fill the bag the same. I am trusting that when the bag states 12 quarts, it is 12 quarts. I wish I bought more. I used both bags and a bag of a different type Fox Farm (Happy Frog) potting soil from a different seller (very pleased with it as well). I will have to look at the bags to determine the actual difference between the 2 types because I couldn't see or feel any significant difference between the 2 types. Dry: three 12 qt bags barely filled my 20 inch diameter, about 2.5 feet high round planter. Oh, forgot to mention that I did place some cardboard from boxes at the bottom of the planter. Should probably plan on at least four 12 quart bags once it settles and compacts down a bit after watering. Shipping packaging was excellent from this seller as well. Each bag was packed in their own box with both in a bigger box. This soil is expensive, but I think it will be worth it. I had some creeping crawling bugs on the very outside of the shipping box, but did not see any on the bags or in the soil. So I don't know where the outside of box bugs came from. Overall, extremely pleased with my order. I highly recommend buying more of the same from this seller!
