Miracle-Gro Premium All Purpose Compost, 50L

Prompt delivery. Helpdul delivery man took compost in back garden as it was too heavy for me. Compost is as good as usual.

Great grass seed. Truly tough especially over a dry, dry summer.

Great size and weight making it easy to carry and move around. The texture of the soil is good and has helped me grow many plants and seedlings. It has high level of moisture retention and potability.

good value

An excellent compost, as you would expect from Miracle-Gro. You receive a 40 litre bag. Not the biggest, but a very useful size. It weighs approx 12kg (almost 2 stones), so bare that in mind if you have trouble lifting. That's enough compost for, 8 x 9(23cm) inch pots. 4 x 10 (25cm) inch pots. 1 x 17 (43cm) inch pot, or 6 x 12 (30cm) inch hanging baskets. I've only used it to pot up seedlings, but I'm sure it would be fine to germinate seeds. It has a really nice crumbly, friable texture. Where it stands out compared with other composts, is the inclusion of the feed pellets, which contain everything thing you need for strong healthy, leave, root and flower growth. All the required nitrogen and phosphates are here, as well as all the other necessary minerals. I've used it to pot up my tomato seedlings into 6 inch (15cm) pots, and in the 10 days that they've been in, they've absolutely shot up. Going from 4cm tall, to now over a foot high (30cm). Very impressive. (Photo) The compost does contain a wetting agent, but try to make sure it doesn't dry out, as re-wetting is always a nightmare. Make sure you roll the top of the bag over when you've taken out the compost you need. Weight it down with a stone, to make it as air tight as you can. Overall, I'm really happy with this compost. It is more expensive than many generic types, but the included nutrients, make it a first class growing medium. I shall happily buy again when needed. Just to confirm, my order was fulfilled by Amazon, and I received Miracle Gro compost. It seems if you purchase from another seller, what you receive could be a bit of a lottery. I hope you found this review helpful.

It does what it says. High quality, good quantity, doesn't have any bad odours, isn't too bulky, and your plants will thank you once you use it.

This compost is brilliant I had much better plants when I used it. It’s easy to use and hardly any clumsiness.

Excellent all round compost, I use it for planters and pots
