PittMoss Plentiful Organic Peat-Free Potting Mix

I had a very good experience. It looked fine, maybe a bit grayer than peat-based potting soil, but I expected that. I didn't see bits of paper with words on them as seen in a photo from the website. I noticed a slight odor as I opened the bag, a bit different but not unpleasant, and it dispersed. I have used the soil to repot a papyrus and a couple of months later it looks a lot happier. Will buy again, no question, including for outside gardening.

Tomato plants grown in Plentiful were much bigger and healthier than another potting mix. After seeing the difference, I ordered more.

Everything I planted in it is way ahead of plants in regular soils. I am a senior so the light weight and the free delivery were primary considerations, but the results are fantastic. Holds moisture so much better so I don’t need to worry about watering in the dry weather we’ve had so far this summer.

I love that it's recycled and can't wait to try other products.

Pittmoss is excellent - I use it for native plant plug pots, mixed 50% with organic compost. It holds moisture very well. Adding the compost helps it to keep its structure over the growing season - Pittmoss alone, if allowed to fully dry, has a hard time rehydrating and will shrink in the cell.

I am very happy with the results so far. I started more than 40 varieties of peppers 3 weeks ago and have had all but six varieties emerge so there’s still hope. I just started around 140 varieties of tomatoes so I will know what kind of success I’ll have in about a week. I used PittMoss straight out of the bag. In the future I may mix with some potting soil depending on the success I have with my first go around. So far, I am very happy with your product. I like the weight, texture and ease of use. Clumping is minimal. It seems to be holding moisture nicely. I look forward to using it in the future as a substitute for peat moss.

I'm using Plentiful as a seed starting mix. I've just started pepper and eggplant seeds and found the product easy to work with. I did find a couple of seeds becoming exposed after the initial planting, so I was worried that the growing mix was too loose to protect seedlings. However, seeds are sprouting just fine and seem to be thriving. I'm very anxious to see how they progress in the coming weeks! I love the light weight, clean mix and hope it can replace my traditional seed starting mix which was peat based.

My seeds have germinated quickly. They’re so healthy looking and growing very well. Love the way it feels and the way it holds moisture next the seeds and seedlings is great. I won’t be using anything else in the future.

I've used it to seed several trays of flowers and vegetables. To date many of those have germinated several days before expectation. So, we shall see how it does at those seedlings get bigger! So far it's a great product. Susan
