Red Icculus said...: Hey thanks for the shoutout, Rob! This stuff performs way better than Miracle Gro potting soil, being organic, not needing to be watered as often, and being cheap.

A block of coco is $5, a bag of compost is $2, and a bag of perlite is $3. That is enough potting soil for one serious container garden!; August 17, 2009 at 3:10 PM

The only thing this potting soil is lacking for heavy flowering plants over time is Calcium and Magnesium. This can easily be remedied with 1 teaspoon of blackstrap molasses and 1/4 tsp. epsom salts per gallon of water, or simply regular fertilizing with a liquid fertilizer.; October 16, 2009 at 1:15 PM
