    Great soil that COMES WITH GNATS FREE OF CHARGE!!!

    Great soil as far as how plants like it but every time I buy some I get infested with Fungus Gnats. Last year (4-2024) I had to toss out all my plants because I could not get rid of them. Then I waited until 3/2025 to buy more plants one at a time to make sure none had gnats. And then after 5 new plants and no gnats I made the BIG mistake of buying MG again. I figured maybe it was an infestation at their plant. Well, within a week I started seeing them again! ARHGGG! And they were not the same type as last time this was a new type (and entomologist told me there are many varieties even two species. Well this time NEVER am I going to trust MG again.

    We're sorry to read about your experience with the Miracle-Gro Raised Bed Soil and appreciate your feedback. To help get rid of the gnats, try these tips: Let the soil dry out between waterings to kill the larvae. Most people over water their plants, which can make the problem worse. Yellow sticky traps placed near where you see the gnats flying around can help catch them. Apply a layer of sand (at least 1/2 inch) on top of the soil in your potted plants to prevent the larvae from burrowing and help them die off. Leave the sand in place for several weeks until the problem is gone. Important note: Don't use sand on seedlings or when starting plants from seeds, as it can harm them. Remember, it might take a few weeks to see a significant reduction in the number of gnats. It's important to treat all of your houseplants to ensure you get rid of the problem completely. 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.

    I have never been so disappointed! I have 2 raised beds, one I filled with regular garden soil. Plants are doing great. The other has you more expensive soil. I can’t get anything started around the hundreds of mushrooms sprouting! I wish I could add a photo. Ridiculous!

    We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Miracle-Gro Raised Bed Soil and appreciate your feedback. Fungal spores are a natural part of soils. Under the correct conditions, spores can develop into fungus or mold. Our growing media products are not sterilized and may contain microorganisms such as fungus. In fact, fungus/mold has been scientifically proven to improve the growth of plants which is why we do not sterilize the soil. The fungus/mold only becomes a problem if there is an overgrowth. Overgrowth occurs when the soil/mulch is too wet. The mold and fungus that grow on soils and mulch are safe for people to be around, although, as always, we recommend you use gloves when handling. Allow the plants to dry out a bit between waterings. This will not harm the plants. 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.

    I was very disappointed with this plant mix. It had too much wood mulch. It seemed to have a dark substance residue after water runs through it, looks like black tea? I thought it was waste of money.

    BAD DIRT. Fungal disease, no growth, no production

    I bought 40 bags of this for my new raised beds 3 months ago. I noticed a sewage like smell and thought it was the smell of the manure. I amended it with perlite, worm casting and bone meal. The snow peas and green beans barely grew much less produced enough for maybe one meal. The peppers and cucumbers barely grew and had a lot of yellowing leaves. My transplanted rosemary plants had so much white mildew and spotted fungus despite fungicide treatments, and finally died. I finally figured it was the soil because the pepper plant I grew with a local compost producer grew and produced like mad. It is still growing and producing while the ones with Miracle grow remains a single stem. Such a waste of time and money. Never again.

    I bought 8 bags of Miracle-Gro Raised Bed Soil this summer, and my entire garden withered away. More concerning is that after watering, the drainage resembles motor oil! It stained my concrete porch and drive way, as well as a patio table. So disappointing! have used this product in the past without issue. This is the first summer in 10 years with no yield from my garden whatsoever!

    I bought 20 bags of this product and got no vegetables from it. It was a waste of my hard earned money and our time opening it, spreading it, and even putting water in it because nothing grew from it for 4 months now. I'm scared of putting it on the ground. My coworker even bought the same brand and kind of soil with the same results, "NOTHING."

    Even with poor reviews, I took a chance and bought this soil. I've never had an issue with Miracle Grow but a month later, I regret my decision. The reviews are right, the soil is killing plants. I started with 9 plants in this soil, I now have barely 2. All my other veggies and flowers not in this soil are fine, all growing conditions and location are the same; the only difference is the soil. Something about this mix is just not right. So disappointing, Miracle Grow never fails me...until now.

    I wish I had read reviews before letting our lawn guy fill my new raised vegetable beds with the raised bed soil. It’s more like cheap mulch with chopped up wood and sticks than what I expected, a rich quality soil. It’s about a month in after planting and little mushrooms are now popping up, pepper leaves are turning yellow, and the majority of seeds did not sprout despite the warm weather and consistent watering. Incredibly disappointed in a company that had a great reputation. I spent a lot of money filling the beds with poor quality material I would not even call soil or dirt. I do not recommend the raised bed soil and won’t be purchasing Miracle Gro products again. I’m worried about what the material actually is and if anything that does make it to harvest is safe to eat or if I’ve been growing in toxic debris. I’ll be replacing this so called soil with actual dirt this fall. What happened to your quality, Miracle Gro? I’m so disappointed ☹️

    I bought 3 bags in early May and used them in a 2' x 4' raised bed planter. I planted basil and jalapeño plants. All of the plants turned yellow and dropped leaves. I thought the issue could be over or under watering. I finally added some Miracle-Gro water soluble Plant Food for Vegetables & Herbs and in just a few days all of the plants turned green again and are much improved. So the soil lacks any useful nutrients.

    I purchased 10 bags around Memorial day. I am experiencing the same as the other bad reviews. Nothing is growing! First and last time buying this raised bed soil! I thought Miracle gro was a trusted brand name. Very disappointed, not only is the soil garbage, I've lost a lot of money on vegetable plants. It's hard to believe they didn't know it wasn't any good when they shipped it out to be sold. Never buying Miracle Gro products again!

    I just bought 4 bags of this thinking not even questioning the quality of a Miracle Grow Product! I just transplanted all my tomatoes, peppers & Thai Basil into bigger pots using the “raised bed” product and now I am looking at all the negative reviews and I am concerned after all the work I put into germination, and tending to my seedlings under grow lamps for months only to see these reviews on this product I just planted all my veggies and herbs in! Wish me luck! But if I have the same issues like found in other reviews I won’t be buying this product again!
