Scotts Miracle-Gro Potting Soil Review

Stop wasting your money on "cheap" potting soil.  Don't do it anymore!  Spend a little extra on Miracle Gro and I PROMISE you will see amazing results! 

This product works exactly like they say it will.  They're not exaggerating for the commercials, you really will see your flowers and/or vegetables bloom close to double in size.  Just open up a bag of Miracle Gro potting soil and you can SEE the difference!  It's not just a solid black pile of dirt you're looking at.  The white stuff mixed in there with the dirt is actually Miracle Gro Plant Food, and it is what helps Miracle Gro work so well.  And it's not even really dirt that you see, it's a blend of composted bark fines, Canadian sphagnum peat moss, horticultural-grade perlite and a wetting agent.   Sounds better than what you're using, huh?

I use Miracle Gro potting soil for potted plants, and also when I'm doing actually gardening in the yard.  I use it in place of top soil in small areas, like my flower beds.  And I use it for larger projects like filling in the dirt when I dig up for my rose bushes.  It makes such a big difference.  I wouldn't dream of using anything else.  I've also used it for my tomato and pepper plants that I grow in the summer.  I get twice the produce that I would get otherwise.  Think of the money I save at the grocery store!  Cha-ching.

I usually buy a ten pound bag and just keep what I don't use in the shed.  It saves well, and doesn't dry out.  Most of the bags have a ziploc closure to help lock in moisture in the soil, which I think is a pretty handy thing to have.  I'm always resoiling, or repotting my plants so it's convenient to have it there when I need it.

So, the next time you have a gardening project, buy yourself some Miracle Gro!  You'll be so glad you did.
