I got this from Lowes a couple years ago. It works if you are on a budget. If you get any fungus gnats, you will have a problem. There are a lot of wood bits and shavings in it along with some sand.I got an infestation of fungus gnats recently. The plants I used with this soil were doing fine until I got the infestation of fungus gnats. Because of the wood, there is plenty of opportunity for fungus to grow. I can't get rid of it, so the fungus gnat larvae has plenty to feed from. I'm trying some pesticide/fungicide that comes in granules. Hopefully it will work.I've never seen potting soil with wood and so much sand in it before this. I've seen other types that are amazingly worse than this potting soil. There isn't a lot of sand in it, but there is a decent amount that shows up after watering it over time.Overall, It is ok if you don't mind the wood bits all over the place. If you don't want fungus and soil that doesn't hold much water, stay away from this stuff.
