Product Description

A plant is only as good as the soil it grows in, so we developed Perfect Start™ to promote strong, healthy roots and foliage for transplants and container plants. You can use it on its own, or mix a few scoops thoroughly with poor soil to increase its productivity. What's in Perfect Start? Nothing but all-natural components that are great for helping plants grow: nutrient-rich humus, all-natural Total Minerals™, worm castings, a boost of calcium, coir fibers from coconuts, and additional minerals from natural sources. Use Perfect Start in flower pots, window boxes and hanging baskets. It's also perfect for use with flowers, herbs and vegetables, too.

Product Details
  • Botanical Name: Perfect Start™ Natural Potting Soil
  • Season: both Spring & Fall
  • Size: 16 Qt
