  • Great Moisture Control but Could Improve Drainage
Size: 8 qt. Style: 2 Pack
I’ve been using the Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix for my container plants, and overall, it does a good job at helping prevent both over- and under-watering. The soil feels light and retains moisture well, which keeps my plants hydrated longer than regular potting mix. That said, I noticed the drainage isn’t perfect—sometimes water pools a bit if I’m not careful with watering amounts. Still, it’s a solid mix for beginners and container gardeners wanting a bit more control over soil moisture. Would buy again, just would watch watering closely. ... show more
