    • Ensure the best possible growing conditions
Size: 8 qt.
The Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix is advertised as a solution for both indoor and outdoor container gardening, with added benefits such as moisture control and extended fertilizer feeding. However, there are several potential drawbacks and concerns to consider when evaluating this product. One major concern is the claim of "moisture control." While the intention behind this feature is to help regulate the moisture levels in the soil, there have been reports of inconsistency in its performance. Some users have found that the mix retains too much moisture, potentially leading to issues like overwatering and root rot. On the other hand, others have experienced the mix drying out quickly, requiring frequent watering. This inconsistency can make it difficult to provide the optimal watering conditions for your plants. The claim of added fertilizer that feeds plants for up to 6 months can be misleading. While the presence of added nutrients is beneficial, the effectiveness of the extended feeding timeline can vary depending on factors such as plant type, environmental conditions, and the specific nutrient needs of your plants. In some cases, plants might require more frequent or tailored fertilization to thrive. Additionally, the 8-quart size of the product might not be suitable for larger gardening projects. For individuals with multiple containers or larger outdoor spaces, this size might be insufficient, leading to the need for multiple bags of the product. Furthermore, the performance of potting mixes can be highly dependent on the specific plants you intend to grow. Some plants require specific soil compositions and drainage characteristics to flourish, and a one-size-fits-all potting mix might not provide the best conditions for all types of plants. In summary, while the Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix offers convenience with its added fertilizer and moisture control claims, there are concerns regarding its consistency in moisture regulation, the effectiveness of extended fertilization, and its suitability for various plant types. Gardeners may benefit from researching and selecting potting mixes tailored to their specific plants' needs to ensure the best possible growing conditions. ... show more

    • Recommend!
Size: 8 qt.
It's a good size for plant beginners. This is the second time I buy it. There was enough soil for 12 plants and the bag can last you up to 6 months (if you don't have a lot of plants). It's also very cheap compared to other prices.

    • FIRST, instead of a green thumb, I have more of a black thumb.... UPDATE!!!
Size: 8 qt.
UPDATE: It's now July, my plants ARE THRIVING. Great soil. The plants in them are healthy, growing fast. I know very little about plants, but have a friend who does and mine are mostly in shade, so she picked the right kind for that amount or lack of sun. She had even found a plant just growing wild behind a shed here and repotted in this soil, and it started flowering. SO YES, I will always get this kind. _________________________________________________ I wanted a good sized pot of plants near my entryway and got this soil, put it in a large pot and a friend picked up some plants and planted for me, but I had to keep them alive. They're THRIVING. I just water them. EXCELLENT RICH SOIL. For gardening novices or those who have trouble keeping plants alive, I would suggest this and the price was right too. ... show more

    • A good potting soil mix for moisture retention
Size: 8 qt.
I like Miracle Grow products in general as they have always worked fine when I have used them in the past. This was the first I had purchased this specific version of Miracle Grow potting soil, having used their basic or cactus lines in the past. Compared to their basic potting soil, this line does retain moisture quite a bit longer. I used this product in planting both new seedlings entirely in this mix and also used some of this soil to supplement soil in older potted plants chipmunks had dug out when scavaging our potted plants kept outside when warm. So far this moisture retaining soil has worked fine as in neither case did the plants require the soil to dry out between waterings. For any plants that do not like the soil on the dry side this soil appears to be a great choice. But if your plants do like their soil on the drier side of things I would not recommend this version of Miracle Grow soil as you might end up with root rot because it does stay so damp. I actually have cut back on my watering routine since using this soil as a result. I honestly am not sure I would purchase this again as their other basic soil line has always worked well in the past. ... show more

    • Used for repotting
Size: 8 qt. (2 Pack)
I bought 2 bags thinking I would need all of it to re-pot two medium-sized plants. I only needed part of one bag. The soil is lightweight and seems to hold moisture well. The plants were only in water for many, many years, so I am hoping that the shock of repotting into soil won't be disastrous. I am hope that this Miracle-Gro will keep them thriving with its moisture control and minerals, etc. ... show more

I loved the high quality potting soil,the moisture control formulation is appealing to me. The price is great especially if youre using it to mix with premium stuff like FoxFarms Happy frog soil.itd expensive. Only thing i dont like about the miracle grow is it doesnt have mychorrizae to help the plants. If they added that, they be a lil bit higher up the food chain. ... show more
