Michigan Peat 20 Pound Bag of Garden Magic General Purpose Moisture Retaining Potting Soil Mix for Indoor and Outdoor Planting

Works well. I used it as a filler for my outside beds. Tops everything off and finishes it out nicely. It has a perfect consistency for an outdoor bed. By putting in the new soil it prevents insect infestation's. It also makes a great mixer soil. Great buy for your money. It comes in a big bag like real soils does. Yet it’s easy to handle and lift.

Great soil! Good amount of chunk, it has good water absorption and good drainage. Smells nice and the price is nice, too.

I've been using this dirt for over a year and love what I am seeing so far. Moisture retention is very good in Utah, as is its consistency. I used the 40 lb bag, and its weight is exactly 40 pounds. As far as a bug problem goes, I have seen none. My roses are doing well, and my tomatoes did great last year. The soil has what it needs to do well in Utah.

Line the headline says, the soil is great quality, it's very chunky with branches, wood chips and other compost items which is good but if you're looking to plant seedlings, I would go through the soil and take them out and loosen up the dirt itself before putting in seed trays. I, of course, throw the branches and other chunky items in my garden and compost so it's still worth it. Definitely get 2 bags, 1 is not enough for sure.

very good soil, I mixed it with some soil that I had left over in a container , and it worked. I'm using it in my 3 gallon containers for my hostas

Great value

Not what I expect from potting soil. Too much clay. Too many pieces of half composed branches. Not enough sand. Retains water well... not necessarily in a good way. Clots up into hard lumps as it dries. Needs a course mesh seive to remove the junk in it and to mix the organics into it. Not horrible. Not great either.

My only problem is that this is the biggest bag I’ve found. This gave me the most success with my plants so far.
