Decent soil but you can get it a good couple of cheaper in the shops
Both of the same items received ripped!? Not good! No support from Delivery person.
Arrived ripped so soon spilled out just be careful when it arrives
The cheapest and best compost I’ve found. Ideal for mixing with soil to give plants and flowers organic nutrients. Used to good effect in the garden. Recommended.
Fast delivery and does the job just right!! I was able to repot a large monstera plant, a small on and I still have loads left so an all, quite happy with my purchase
The soil was perfectly fine. There was no unusual debris in the mix. Perhaps a little on the dry side but I think it was normal.
Large indoor plant appeared to be dying I cleaned out the pot and refilled. With mlracle go immediate results like a new pla
Arrived really quickly and was not expecting there to be so much
PLANTS GROW FAST AND HEALTHY.ESSENTIAL FOR NEW AND MORE ESTABLISHED PLANTS .BEST PRODUCT ON THE MARKET.
Great soil. A size I can lift. The plants love this.
Only thing I would say is more the drivers who deliver it to disabled residence should be more helpful instead of leaving it on inaccessible places farewarning of them ringing the doorbell and leaving items out the front. It’s a very good product tho! I’ve used it for years with my fruit and veg I’ve just moved home and now it’s one of my staples for everything
helped me as i am trying to make my x wife connect with her smile she loved the surprise thank you
It’s a proven product and is very light to manage and I always get good results KD
Love miracle grow, my plants always seem bigger & full of life with this compost.
These are my cutting, they have done superbly with this, easy to use.
This compost was nice and dry, no musty smells. Very pleased with it.
Good compost have ordered before very quick delivery and well packed
Nice price compared to the usual bought on the usual places. Quick delivery and good results.
I received this item in record time, was just what I needed. Great value at a great price.
I’d definitely buy from JDS again…
This bag of miracle gro compost is really good value for money, lovely large bag full of good quality compost.
Value for money buying a premium brand. I use this compost mainly for my indoor plants. The plants look and grow really well.
Great value for money, and a great soil for plants,my plants are thriving
can’t complain, its manure, it did what i expected it to do
Every outdoor plant has flourished with this compost, so Im happy.
Fast delivery its my 4th bag ordered.
Miracle-Gro never disappoint me. I used this brand for a long time now and also tried other makes but nothing like MG. I notice in the compost there are a mixture of granules miracle gro fertiliser. I also mixed the compost with crushed eggshells and tea bags and also horse manure when planting
or re-potting. I find the result is amazing. My pear tree bore overwhelmingly and my roses never fail to
bloom to beautify my back and front gardens. I’m very pleased with this product. It is good that they deliver to the doorstep; unlikely before I used to get from the garden centre and it was a nightmare to bring it to our garden as our parking area is away from our house. My neighbour told me to get online to get the bags delivered, since then I stopped getting from the garden centres or supermarkets.
Thanks will highly recommend love how my plants are flourishing
Lovely compost rich and dark with moisture beads
My begonias love it they are flurishing as the
Compost has all the lovely goodness they need .
The bag is a decent size I did 4 patio pots and 3 hanging baskets.
Awesome value for money I say
I used this compost to fill my patio planters with, just the right amount.
As always service really good and on time, compost good, this is my third bag and I will continue you to use this product and company in the future.
Got delivered today and the delivery driver kindly stacked it in the back garden. Full marks for the driver. Great product have used before, hence I bought it again.
Just what my garden needed give life back to flowers did find bit pricey
As I have not planted or sown anything in it, it is too early to comment.
This is great – I have used it over several years. It gives plants a great healthy start.
Good compost only 4 stars as both bags had holes in them patched up with parcel tape but still managed to leak all over the porch much to my partners delight.
Nothing disliked just use Hermes as delivery and they do not match other Amazon deliveries everything I have had recently from Hermes has taken agws
Apologies first for wrong review left by mistake for chair oops!
All purpose miracle grow compost arrived promptly. Good all round service from seller.
Ive yet to use it, but looks ok. Thank you.
What I liked is that my items are delivered quickly. And the quality of the items are good and worth to money.
Product is excellent but slightly more expensive than buying at a garden centre or supermarket. However it was ideal to get this product on line during the covid lockdow
Have used this product before. It is great, and now it is to fill a huge pot for our globe artichoke thistle. We are not experienced container gardeners but very enthusiastic. May not get artichokes this year but going forward, as it is a perennial and this compost is excellent I envisage years of lovely artichokes….possibly over ambitious saying years as our joint age is 135 years.
Have used this on all my planting this year and everything is growing wonderfully!
Compost has arrived, left on my doorstep as out but I was very pleased to receive it and product excellent. Thank you.
This sack of compost arrived simply packed and in perfect condition.
I’m really pleased with this.
It’s a decent amount, smells and feels fresh and clean, and is easy to use.
I have tried cheaper brands but they’re nowhere near as good.
Definitely recommend.
Thanks for reading, I hope you find this review helpful.
Arrived on time and as expected good quality compost for me great to get a heavy bag delivered
A good compost which is easy to use and holds adequate moisture for the plants.
Easy enough to use however there has been no wonderful show of flowers yet. I thought this would produce quicker growth but so far this hasn’t happened.
IT IS A DEAR WAY TO BUY COMPOST BUT I NEEDED SOME THAT IS DELIVERED. IT ARRIVED VERY QUICKLY AND IS GOOD COMPOST
I’ve always used miracle grow, very happy with the produc
I have bought this compost many times – it arrived promptly and is exactly what I wanted
This soil help grow your seeds in 2-3 weeks,very clean soil, miracle grow is the bes
Good value for money (cheaper than the local nursery) and great for new plug plants – they are thriving!
It really does work plants are healthier and they really do grow!! .. marvellous product I dont use anything else now, also use their plant feed for the ones i havent repotted yet…. sigh
Arrived ahead of time.
Put on lawn yesterday now waiting for the rain soak weed & feed to do it’s magic.
An excellent compost, as you would expect from Miracle-Gro.
You receive a 40 litre bag. Not the biggest, but a very useful size. It weighs approx 12kg (almost 2 stones), so bare that in mind if you have trouble lifting.
That’s enough compost for, 8 x 9(23cm) inch pots. 4 x 10 (25cm) inch pots.
1 x 17 (43cm) inch pot, or 6 x 12 (30cm) inch hanging baskets.
I’ve only used it to pot up seedlings, but I’m sure it would be fine to germinate seeds.
It has a really nice crumbly, friable texture.
Where it stands out compared with other composts, is the inclusion of the feed pellets, which contain everything thing you need for strong healthy, leave, root and flower growth. All the required nitrogen and phosphates are here, as well as all the other necessary minerals.
I’ve used it to pot up my tomato seedlings into 6 inch (15cm) pots, and in the 10 days that they’ve been in, they’ve absolutely shot up. Going from 4cm tall, to now over a foot high (30cm). Very impressive. (Photo)
The compost does contain a wetting agent, but try to make sure it doesn’t dry out, as re-wetting is always a nightmare. Make sure you roll the top of the bag over when you’ve taken out the compost you need.
Weight it down with a stone, to make it as air tight as you can.
Overall, I’m really happy with this compost. It is more expensive than many generic types, but the included nutrients, make it a first class growing medium.
I shall happily buy again when needed.
Just to confirm, my order was fulfilled by Amazon, and I received Miracle Gro compost. It seems if you purchase from another seller, what you receive could be a bit of a lottery.
I hope you found this review helpful.
Obviously the compost was ok although I got 2 50lt bags at B & M for 9.(MIRACLE GRO) So was a ripoff, but lesson learned.
I always use this product when reporting my houseplants. Good quality soil and excellent value for money.
Easy to use. Too early to tell how well plants will do
Great product, I found it easy to use. My seeds seem. To have like them and are now coming through.
Love this as it really helps my plants grow. Bought some last year and it really makes a difference
I bought two bags of compost. I do not have a car so it was convenient to have the compost delivered to the door protected each ina cardboard box. It is too early and cold to use the compost outside so the growing result will have to wait. although you could get cheaper compost from B and Q you still have to transport it. this way was easy and satisfying. I am nolonger a Spring Chicken so it suited me.
Used for bedding plants. Easy to use. Packaged very well and delivery was pretty quick
Ordered 2 bags of this, came in 2 nice little boxes and was delivered on time despite amazon saying they was on hold on day of delivery!! Been potting some new veg seedings today aswell as 2 30l buckets for potatoes. Very happy despite some reviews for this product! Just to wait and see now but seems to be a rich compost! Ill be ordering some more soon!
The compost is as expected but sadly the plastic bag it came in was torn open. Not a massive tear, ~6″ long, but right down the center line of the bag meaning the only way to open it was to extend that tear. Just a quick warning to others just in case it happens to you and the delivery driver doesn’t point it out you can end up with a lot of compost on your floor.
i like this compost anyway and to buy it at a good price, for it to be delivered is just so useful when you have no transport, will be buying a lot more as we enter spring..
This soil comes bagged in original bag and then boxed up. Perfect for finishing repotting some indoors plants and used to also toonoonpots in my garden. This soil unlike some I have bought is not dried out and the bag was in perfect condition. All of the plants I repotted indoors have actually had a growth spurt, this soil says it is enriched and I believe this has helped my plants. I am very pleased with Miracle grow products and this has not let me down.
The bag is way bigger than I expected (always read the packaging!) I always use this brand for my indoor plants. They thrive and I’m happy
This compost has nice texture and is a good sized bag. The plants I have potted so far have come on well. I will buy this agai
Quick delivery not much else to say really a good quality soul for flower pots or hanging baskets
My son recently returned from a 9 month theatre tour in the USA that was cut short because of the virus. With no theatrical work on the horizon, he’s become quite obsessed with gardening (which I am delighted about!).
This is one of many recent purchases of gardening materials and equipment and he says that this is probably the best compost in the price range. Of course, a ton of hard work has gone into making the garden look presentable again, but all his efforts have been successful and he’s convinced the compost has played a big part.
Recommended.
I have over the last 6 months bern shielding snd let me tell you it’s gotten really boring so I thought that I’d try some gardening. Didn’t know I had such green fingers.
All my first attempts with plants and vegetables have been very successful. All of which gave bern planted in pots.
The price was not excessive and the soil was pretty moist. Didn’t like all the big bits n it, but having said that the docks hadn’t hindered the growth of any of my veg or plants.
I’m in my second sack and am pleased with the compost.

Have bought this many times mainly for the many plants I have growing in tubs outside. Arrived on time, securely packaged & am very happy with my purchase.
Great compost iv mixed in with other compost and it works well arrived very fast I’d certainly recommend this compost and if I am potting small plant I’d use this compost only really dose what it says arrived so well packed and very fast delivery
Good soil. Bit expensive but as I couldn’t get any locally I don’t mind as much. Arrived quickly.
I buy this regularly to grow new plants, trees & plugs in the ground & in pots. I add it to the soil in my garden because I have heavy clay soil, so I mix together 50% miracle grow soil with 50% clay in the spot I’m planting a new plant or plug & so far no plants have died, but before I did this I’d lose some plants probably due to the heavy clay soils poor drainage. A lot of plants have thrived & grew quickly, producing lots of flowers. Some of these are plugs I have not even established in pots before planting into the ground, I’ve just planted them straight into the ground.
I know I could use pure organic compost like rotted manure but I feel this is better for producing fast results & it has lots of nutrients in it. It goes far too if I mix it with clay soil so I’m able to plant at least 30-50 plants with a whole bag
Arrived in perfect condition and looks good. I needed it to top up my potatoes in a tub and the compost was very good. I also used it with some of my other pot plants. The plants are growing well and the compost hasn’t gone bad or mouldy at all, despite the wet weather. It is a bit pricy but considering its Miracle Grow and it was delivered then it was worth it.
We’ve just repotted all our (slightly wilted) herbs. They took to the soil wonderfully, and are now growing at a fantastic rate! Worth the price
If you mean can I lift it then as I’m only small it is harder for me to move it but it’s not a problem I take the pots to the bag lol thanks great product xx
Very good but the package it come had a massive hole in luckily the was know hole in the bag of compos.
Well, didn’t I get a bargain?, last in the shop at the time, cheap cheap cheap well normal price in normal times, but this isn’t normal times and I didn’t think it would arrive given this virus thing, as its not a priority or really important, except to me and my plants.. being as everywhere else was shut! But hey, you delivered and my plants are now reaping their needs and looking beautiful… long may it remain… thank you!!
I was pleased to be able to order and obtain this compost during ” lockdown” as the world and his brother had taken to gardening and compost was difficult to get.
I was not prepared to spend hours queuing so I bought this,
The compost looked good, is easy to use, bag is heavy for women or older people but I managed.
It was well packed and delivered on time.
I have used this product previously and it always maintains the same good quality.
As an AMATUER gardener, I find this product easy to use for almost any purpose. It’s ideal for early growing and later transplanting. I even use it to enrich my soil, which is not the best available. Try, if you don’t like, throw it away on the garden.
I used the product for potting on tomatoes. They are greedy plants so the enriched quality of this compost will be perfect for their healthy growth. Delivered in useful sized packages exactly when promised. Other suppliers have let me down recently.
Would like to thank the seller for delivering the product to my sister although a week later than expected, it was much appreciated due to lockdown and as she is housebound and not too good in health. She is busy planting and is happy with the product.
Perfect compost for my patio plant pots. More expensive than if I was able to go and pick up but as isolation made impossible this was best alternative. Good fast delivery.
Love this compost. However, when I went to buy another bag today the price had TRIPLED to what paid for previous bag in April. That is disgusting. Hence to say I haven’t bought anymore I will make do until I can source some compost at NORMAL pricing
Just what your plants need, never had any problems with it. You’re plants are getting the rich food that is needed. Watering is good but your plant will thrive with one cap full in watering can once a week.
Miracle gro I buy every year it is all I ever use and I don’t have to wait long to get it and the lads that brings it are very helpful and very pleasent db
I have used some of this for my indoor plants and WOWZERS my cheese plant and rubber plant have grown to twice the size in less than a month, it’s brillia
My plants are still doing amazingly since using this stuff + a bit of food pellets. Only problem with them being sent together is needing a very strong person to carry it (or open the box to carry separately.
both bags came taped together which made them hard to shift and poor driver had them both over his back.. with hindsight best to sever the tape and drag them indoors separately! the compost was damp so probably heavier than usual and also one of the bags had split, did let seller know. best compost we’ve come across though for texture and plant success.
I don’t understand the complaints of some reviewers, this is good value for money when you take into account delivery is free. Paying for delivery of heavy items can be very expensive. I have found Miracle-Gro compost gives me the best results when growing on young plants such as tomatoes and strawberries. I recommend this product.
Not often i’d take the time to write a review for compost but this stuff is brilliant.. I bought some bulbs online (not from amazon) and what arrives was a tangled mess of root looking in a very bad way.. I didn’t hold out much hope but potted them up anyway with this compost, watered them and left them.. sure enough within a few days i started seeing little green shoots, watered regular every day and now around 5-6 weeks later have just planted in the garden. They are doing great and i’m sure its down to miracle grow. although i think the price is a bit steep if your on a budget but you have the safety of knowing its excellent stuff and you wont be let down. This is just my experience and opinion but when i can afford it i’l be buying more.
Delivery was fast, efficient and it was well packaged. Would recommend
As I don’t have a car, it was really useful to have this delivered and considering it included the delivery it was a good price.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw the price of this compost, I thought must be a copy or smaller than expect, something must be wrong with it surely? NOPE! It is the real thing and it has saved me time money and effort. Excellent price and value and a speedy delivery.
Excellent compost and to receive two bags at this price is definitely a bonus. Lovely feel to the compost, it was not lumpy and there was a nice ‘fresh’ smell to it…..sounds silly but some compost I have purchased before smelled somewhat ‘musty’ but this did not. Will purchase this item again,..highly recommended
Ordered twice now from san direct and very happy with their service and products. (2 orders at different times of Miracle grow compost 2 x 40L and 2x 50L.)
Ideal for me because I am disabled in a wheelchair, and my wife and I do not drive so unable to go to my nearest garden centre to carry. Would order again in the future.
Always good quality and value for money. It’s worth paying a bit extra to get compost that plants love; also, it’s got less big lumps and uncomposted material in it unlike other composts
GREAT DELIVERY MAN KINDLY PUT THIS IN GREENHOUSE FOR ME
I AM ELDERLY SO THIS WAS GOOD
THANKYOU
