Rooting made simple
I have a house plant that has proven difficult to root with adding rooting hormone. I had some clippings that I broke off of the plant and put them in a glass of water. After about two weeks they still hadn't rooted. I got some seed starting potting mix and followed the directions on the package. Two weeks later the clipping in the potting mix look better than the plant they came from. I will definitely use this product again. I highly recommend it for this application.

You can definitely tell this is the high quality soil with all the nutrients needed to start the growth of a new plant. I definitely recommend!

Excellent Start for Healthy Seedlings!
I've used a lot of different seed starting mixes over the years, but Miracle-Gro's Seed Starting Potting Mix really stands out. The texture is light and fluffy, which makes it super easy for seeds to germinate and roots to grow without resistance. I noticed faster sprouting and stronger seedlings compared to other brands.
What I love most is that it holds moisture well without becoming soggy, so I don’t have to constantly worry about over- or under-watering. Plus, since it's enriched with nutrients, I don’t need to fertilize right away—the mix gives the plants a healthy start right out of the gate.
I’ve used it with herbs, tomatoes, peppers, and even flowers, and everything has thrived. No pests, no mold issues, just great results. Highly recommend this if you're starting seeds indoors or in a greenhouse. It’s become a staple in my gardening supplies!

Great lightweight soil
The bag of soil was surprisingly light when I picked it up which was indicative of the density. It seems like this would be good to allow the seeds to gain some traction in order to get your seeds started.
