Miracle-Gro Succulent Potting Mix

I always try to use Miracle Grow products and this is my first choice in potting soil. It has fertilizer already in it, good texture with perlite, soil, and plant fiber mixed in so I don't have to add anything to it. Plants grow well in it and it is easy to use. It retains enough moisture but drains well too. I'm always surprised how much soil a pot can hold and usually need more than I think I will. I bought this bag to transplant a plant I bought in a number one container. The soil ball was a little too tall for the pot so I loosened the bottom and spread the roots out so they would fill the sides of the pot. I used half a bag of soil to fill in about two inches all around the root ball! I guess that shows how fluffy the soil is in the bag so be prepared to use more soil than you think you will.

This potting soil saved one of my plants. It was dying and I didn’t know what to do with it. I bought this potting soil and it seemed to be thriving on the fertilized soil. It’s the perfect size. Didn’t need too much to go to the hardware store and buy a large bag. I recommend this.

My plants are growing fast and healthy. Nice and green.

Miracle-Gro is a great brand. I have not tried other brands because this one has remained consistently great. It remains on my shopping list for when I need more and is easy to recommend to others.

Twice in the last 20 years I made the mistake of buying an off brand of potting soil. Both times I was disappointed. The last time I bought an organic off brand, I ended up with a zillion gnats in my plants. I will never buy anything but Miracle-Gro again.

Perfect for my succulents! They are thriving in this soil!

I didn't buy this for succulents, but I got it for making my own chunky mix for aroids. I was having the hardest time finding the right soil that wouldn't stay wet super long. I decided to try this one because it doesn't have sand and it's just a basic peat mix. And actually, it's basically just peat. If you have some amendments like worm castings and myco then you can just buy some peat for half the price and double the size. I have succulents too and I can tell you, they won't be happy in this soil straight. It would definitely need some extra stone or perlite.

It was a nice size bag. The soil is nice.. my plans too good and it.
