Espoma Organic Potting Soil Mix - All Natural Potting Mix for All Indoor & Outdoor Containers Including Herbs & Vegetables. for Organic Gardening, 4qt. Bag. Pack of 1

This is a nice soil mix that I used for potting a couple of plants and topping off the soil on a couple of others. It's a bit more expensive than most, but a good product.

Let me preface this review by saying that I don't consider this a bad product, just wanted to provide this info for anyone else that might need it. I purchased this organic soil to make Walstad dirted shrimp tank, which I understand is not the intended use-case of this product. I established the tank for two weeks with the soil and all the plants before introducing the shrimp. I'll say that the soil works great for the purpose of supporting aquatic plants and the fauna that tagged along with them (snails, worms, bacteria, etc). If you simply wanted to create an aquatic aquarium then I'd say this product will work for you. However, when I introduced the shrimp they really struggled in the tank. Constantly at the water's surface even with water changes and checking all the parameters. After losing a few shrimp I transferred them to another container that just had some fresh RO water and fluval stratum and they perked right up. Based on my researched I've read that some topsoil blends just don't play well with shrimp and their sensitive water needs, so I wanted to put this out there for anyone that comes along.

good product promptly delivered; no flies or foreign substances

The soil is good. There was hardly enough for my 10 inch pot though, nevermind the two other plants that needed repotting. Be aware of what you are potting and how much soil you need.

Arrivd on time, well packed and first class potting soil.

Great soil

This Espoma potting mix is a great option for those looking for a non-fertilized soil option.I needed a soil that wasn't Miracle-Gro as that seems like the only product sold at Home Depot. I've found Miracle-Gro to be full of mold, or bugs in more than a few bags, so I only use Espoma at this point.This stuff looks "clean", and feels as natural as soil can feel. It works great for regular house plants; all the plants that I have potted with this are doing well and looking healthy. Don't forget to have a drainage hole on your planters, otherwise your plants could easily be over-watered. This soil can also be used for terrariums. For any enclosed terrariums I would recommend mixing it with their Espoma 4-Quart Organic Cactus Mix, for a more airy mixture (in a 2:1 cactus/potting soil ratio), that will help with airflow and a self-sustaining water cycle.Espoma has multiple sizes for this product:• Espoma 4-Quart Organic Potting Mix (this product)• Espoma 8-Quart Organic Potting Mix• Espoma 16-Quart Organic Potting Mix• Espoma 2 Cubic Feet Organic Potting MixI ended up buying this several times as this can be used up pretty quickly. I do recommend ordering a lot bigger than you may actually need so you end up saving money. Recommended.

This potting soil was contaminated with fungus gnats, & larvae which eventually spread to all my indoor plants! It had mold in it too! Do not recommend at all, not a happy purchaser of this product & will never buy again!
