  • Superior potting soil for house plants.
Size: 8 qt. Style: 2 Pack
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. ... show more

  • 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

  • My plant loves it
Size: 8 qt. Style: 2 Pack
Works very well, my plant came back to life instantly. I have a plant in college and so I don’t have ready access to fertilizer or rich soil. Thank goodness for Amazon. I realized my plant was drooping even though nothing else had changes until I checked the dirt and it was very hard and lacking of nutrients. I cleaned the roots, refilled the pot with this and saw it come back even better than before within 24 hours!! ... show more

  • Plants Grow like Crazy!
Size: 8 qt. Style: 2 Pack
I love this because here in Florida so much of the water you put on your plants evaporates. This grabs the water and holds onto it until the roots draw it out. I don't have to water nearly as often and the plants grow like crazy!
