HI Folks,
Went to Costco the other day and saw their version of the "Miracle-Gro Organic Potting Mix." They're selling it at a great price. Has anyone had any experience with this particular mix? Is it any good?
Thanks
Bart

I have bought that and had good luck with it. If it is the one that says "moisture control" on the bag, some on the forum have said they don't like it because it's hard to control the moisture. (stays wet too long)?
I use it for 2 things, for uppotting seedlings, (in which case I add some perlite to keep it a little looser); secondly to cover seeds with when planting them out in the garden. (lets the seedlings break thru easier especially here in this arid climate)
Maybe if a person uses it to plant things in large pots in a permanent situation there might be some problems, don't know. But I like the stuff for my purposes.
