Big surprise
I have a raised organic composting planting bed. As it composts, the volume shrinks a little. It was time for me to add soil to what I had there. I saw this, and being 75 years of age and weighing just over 100 lbs, the thought of lugging a bunch of soil from the car to the bed wasn't one I was looking forward to, so I read further. It was a little hard to believe, but I decided to try it. It's nice to find a product that does exactly what it says it will. Two little bags of this soil plumped up to many inches of soil in my planting bed, and my veggies seem to be loving it. While it costs more than regular potting mix, it's not as much as you think because of the huge amount of soil it produces. I like it enough to say that from this point on, it's the only soil I'll be using in my veggie garden.
