Works!
Used this for a school experiment for my daughter and the seeds grew and she was so happy to participate in the process of growing a plant from seeds.

Absolute best potting soil
excellent potting soil as it is much more porous than the original. the only caveat is that the bags are too small.

Terrible shipping from Target
Product itself is fine but shipping from Target is not. Soil got everywhere on my other items. Order this by itself or buy in-store. Do better Target.

bugs
unfortunately mine also had gnats inside :(
1 reply from Miracle-Gro Consumer Services team - 7 months ago
PC, we're sorry to read about your disappointment with Miracle-Gro Organic Indoor Potting Mix and appreciate your feedback. While insects are not present at the time of bagging, they can enter the "breathing" holes in the bag (or through larger holes if the bag was damaged) during shipping or storage at the retailer or after purchased. Insects may also come in with the soil of transplanted plants or enter through cracks, crevices, open windows or doors simply looking for a suitable environment. The small flying insects are likely fungus gnats. These insects do not harm humans and do little plant damage (they primarily feed on the fungus found naturally in soil), but can be a nuisance. A possible way to control fungus gnats includes allowing the soil to dry out as much as possible between watering, which will help control the larvae. Also, you can try applying at least 1/2 inch of horticultural sand on top of the soil of potted/container plants; the larvae cannot burrow through the sand and will die. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee. If for any reason you, the consumer, are not satisfied with the results after using this product, you are entitled to get your money back. Limitations apply. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-295-6902 if we can further assist.

Indoor Potting Mix
I typically buy one of these every year to plant in the spring. This did the trick this season and I have had great results with my plants this season.

Attracts flies
The idea of organic potting mix sounded nice but it does attract small flies/fruit flies. The texture is a lot different from standard potting mix and is more just like straight up dirt. I’ve been using this only a couple months and have discovered flies in the soil of one of my vining plants. I will likely have to repot all of my plants now because I’ve never had this happen with other soils. The plant was not even overwatered - it was actually dry and under watered. Would not recommend.

Love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good soil. Typical Scott’s quality. Great for indoor plant potting or repotting. I live in Arizona and used this for potting petunias. I’ll be leaving them outside for another week or so to set and then they’ll have to come inside for the summer as it gets wicked hot here. This soil hold moisture well and gives good nutrients to plants and flowers. It never lets me down!

PLANTS LOOK SO MUCH HEALTHIER
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t believe how well this indoor potting mix has worked on my indoor plants. My plants are thriving and look so healthy. This potting mix is the perfect mixture that drains and holds moisture very well. I love the texture of this potting mix and I also love that it doesn’t contain any unwanted debris. I repotted a few of my plants and I’m just amazed at how vibrant and healthier they looked. This is just a great product that I highly recommend.

Miracle-Gro Indoor Potting Mix is a Game Changer!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely LOVE this potting mix! From the moment I started using Miracle-Gro Indoor Potting Mix, I saw a huge difference in the health and growth of my indoor plants. The soil is light, airy, and perfectly balanced for houseplants — no gnats, no mold, just clean, high-quality mix that holds moisture without getting soggy. My peace lily and pothos have never looked better — lush, vibrant, and full of life. I also appreciate that it's specially formulated for indoor use, so I don’t have to worry about pests or odors. It’s become my go-to soil for all repotting projects, and I recommend it to all plant lovers, beginners or seasoned growers. Thank you, Miracle-Gro, for making plant care easy and successful! 🌿💚

Indoor palm plant
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a large indoor palm and a few months ago a branch broke off. I was able to save the branch, and it, it grew roots and I planted it into a pot. But from there it wasn’t doing well. I then decided to replant it using the Miracle-Gro Organic Indoor Potting Mix. Doing this made all the difference. My palm tree is doing amazing. Just the next day the leaves weren’t droopy and the color was brighter. My palm plant looks so healthy now. There is so much going on in this soil, the texture is soft & fluffy when I poured into the planter. I can see all the nutrients. I am so happy how well my palm plant is doing.

Great for Indoor Plants – Healthy Growth & Minimal
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the 2025 Miracle-Gro Organic Indoor Potting Mix for a few weeks now, and my indoor plants are thriving! The texture is soft, well-draining, and easy to work with. I noticed healthier roots and new growth in my pothos and peace lily within days. Plus, I haven’t had any gnat issues, which is a huge win for an indoor mix. The 8-quart size is perfect for small repotting jobs and houseplant maintenance. I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

My Plants Are Thriving!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using Miracle-Gro Organic Indoor Potting Mix for a couple of weeks now, and I'm genuinely impressed. My houseplants especially my pothos, and even my finicky money plant have been growing beautifully since I switched to this mix. I can't even believe my money plan is now having a little baby on the side! There was no sign of this prior to my miracle gro use. I love that it's organic, offers a great texture and holds moisture well without getting soggy. Highly recommend this to anyone who wants happy, healthy indoor plants!

A whole New soil
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely so enjoyed using this soil and repotting three of my indoor plants. It was soft it was sperm it wasn't mushy but it was coarse it held well a great smell I loved all the little extras including in it and most of all I love the fact that it was organic. That really comes in handy when having little dogs around in case they want to go over and mess with the soil which they always want to it held firmly my plants took to it I water them a couple of days ago when I replanted them and they look great

Perfect potting soil!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this soil when I planted some indoor herb seeds in small pots. This soil would also be good for household plants too. It is made with responsibly sourced peat too which is really cool! The packaging also includes recycled materials. In addition, it has three organic components that help my plants thrive.
