Soils works great
The soil is a great way to start your garden from seeds. When I receive this I planted a couple of pumpkin seeds with this soils as well as another potting mix that I had. The plants sprouted faster and seemed to be healthier.

Quality Potting Mix in perfect size bag.
Item arrived well packaged. The soil is a quality potting mix and did not contain filler. After pre-moisting the soil, it was easy to fill the seed trays. I added a dome cover to the trays, after 2 days, several seeds started to germinate. I used a mister to keep the seeds moist and after 6 days I had 100% germination. Very pleased with the potting mix.

Amazing growth
I am incredibly pleased with this seed starting soil. I have had a couple of transplants that I have wanted to repot and make a new home for. The soil is exactly what I needed. Everyone immediately looks so happy in the new pots that I decided I was going to move over some of my larger plants that are growing like wild. I really like that the soil is light and has all of the active ingredients needed to make my plants happy. Highly recommend. Love Miracle Gro

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.

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.

Couldn't be happier with it for starting seeds.
"I received this product in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion" I used this potting mix to start Cosmos seedlings. I am happy that the mix is very clean, comfortable for me handling it with bare hands. Its embedded fertilizer works as advertised, the seeds grew steadily indoor under LED grow-light bulbs . Here in the High Desert of California are Jan/Feb 2025, it is still a little cooler in the AM. Compared to other products, this mix compacts itself more and more with each watering. And in my opinion it does not drain well after while. Just need to keep the phenomenon in mind when you plan your seedling work, (not insurmountable). In summary, can't be happier with it for starting seeds.

A good start
Used this to start basil that I purchased at the grocery store and it really kept it going. I also did spider plant and pothos starts in it and they went like gang busters! I would use this in my spring seed trays.

Good starter soil
This is a quality soil for starting seedlings. High nutrient content with Miracle-Gro already in the mix. Takes a little time to get it to absorb the water but just be patient and add water slowly and everything will be fine.

Perfect for small seedlings.
Perfect soil makeup for your small seedlings. It has all the nutrients to help your young starts grow up into healthy adult plants. I love how it comes in a manageable bag but is just enough to get done what I need. I recommend to any person growing young plants.

Very light & fluffy. Don't use where it's windy.
It's too soon to know how well my seedlings will do in this soil mix, but if they die, that's on me, not the soil because it's good stuff. The texture is fine and lightweight. Because of this it will blow away easily until you get it wet the first time. Once it's in a container and has been watered it should stay put.

Highly Recommend for Home Gardening
Very fine, light & airy potting mix perfect for starting seeds in. Retains water while still providing good drainage. I am in the process of replanting my house plants into larger pots. The soil I typically use seems to lack nutrients. This product gives your plants a mineral infusion, per say. Miracle-Gro is a brand you can trust.
