          Vigoro garden soil is perfect for my roses, annuals and perennials in my garden. I added some compost too and my shrubs are blooming with lots of color.

          Too much garbage in soil
          I purchased 6 bags of the soil and loaded them into trunk of my car. Then I went to the garden, opened 1 bag and sifted its content through a sieve. At the end I got in the sieve a lot of rocks, chips, etc. So, I went back to the store, unloaded 5 bags from the trunk of my car to the cart and returned them. It looks like I strained my back for nothing.

          We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Vigoro All-Purpose Garden Soil and appreciate your feedback.

          While small pieces of bark and twigs are intentional components of our soil, consumers should not find large pieces of wood or bark. Most of our soils are made of composted forest products and contain very little if any actual soil. Composted forest products provide high organic content and nutrients without the concern for soil compaction. The coarser material allows for air to reach the roots. Small rocks sometimes get past our screening process.

          We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 877-220-3089 if we can further assist. Scotts_Vigoro

            This excellent soil made all of the seeds germinate 3 times sooner than usual, and the same seeds did not germinate in a regular soil. Great product, highly recommend!

            Do not recommend
            I purchased a few bags of this for a raised bed. When I was putting the soil in, I found lots of pieces of plastic, both hard and soft, glass, and synthetic fibers. Not really a product I want to use to add trash to my property. Will never buy anything from this company again.

            This is not the quality of product we intend to produce. Every effort is made to screen out debris. It is possible that the screens were damaged and not noticed, allowing some debris into the bagged product. We take these matters very seriously and will make sure to forward this information to the appropriate department.

              We are sorry to hear about your experience with Vigoro All-purpose Garden Soil and appreciate your feedback.

              Fungal mold spores including mushroom producing fungus are a natural part of soils and mulch. It just takes the right conditions for the spores to develop into a fungus or mold. In fact, fungus mold has been scientifically proven to improve the growth of plants by releasing nutrients from the organic material that growing media are typically. We do not sterilize our growing media as microorganisms are an important component of growing media. The fungus mold only becomes a problem if there is an overgrowth. Overgrowth occurs when the soil mulch is too wet. Keep in mind that mold and fungus on growing media or mulch will go away with sunlight and air circulation.

                It’s mulch
                I couldn’t understand why my plants were not thriving. I thought I had purchased a bad batch of plants so I pulled everything up and repotted. I then realized that the soil is mulch. When you first apply it, it is full soil. After watering, it turns to mulch with chunks of wood. This caused my plants to suffocate as it pulled the moisture out. I would only recommend this product as mulch for the flower bed. Lesson learned.

                While small pieces of bark and twigs are intentional components of our growing media including potting soil, garden soil, lawn soil, and topsoil, you should not find large pieces of wood or bark. Most of our soils especially potting mixes and garden soils are made of composted forest products and contain very little if any actual soil. Composted forest products provide high organic content and nutrients without the concern for soil compaction. The coarser material allows for air to reach the roots of the plant which improves plant performance. This soil is for outdoor in-ground use only. Do not use outdoor soils/mixes such as this one in containers (a Topsy Turvy is considered a container). These types of soils are too dense for container plants and may suffocate plant roots.

                  Weeds Growing in Bag
                  I purchased 5 bags of this soil for my garden bed. When I opened them I found weeds growing in 4 of the bags. I do not feel comfortable buying this brand of soil again, because it could easily spread weeds throughout my garden.

                  We're sorry you were disappointed. Our growing media products undergo composting that kills most weed seeds; however, some may remain. We do not sterilize our soils as this would kill beneficial microorganisms that help the growth of plants. We want you to be confident in our products and would like to go over the details of our product guarantee. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 877-220-3089. Scotts_Vigoro

                    Weeds growing inside bag
                    I bought several bags of this soil for my vegetable garden. When I got them home and opened them I found clumps of weeds growing in multiple bags. This shows terrible quality control on Vigoros part. I no longer feel comfortable using any of their soil, because there could easily be weed seeds in the soil.
