FAQ

Why is Rosy Soil made without peat moss?

Peat moss has been a common ingredient in commercial potting mixes since the 1960s. However, it's obtained by extracting peat bogs, which are vital ecosystems that store carbon. At Rosy, we believe there's a better way. So, we've developed our blends with alternatives that are effective and sustainable.

How is Rosy different from other soils?

Rosy’s indoor potting soil is all-natural, peat free, and made from biochar. 

We’ve consciously sourced our ingredients not only because they’re great for your plants but also because they’re good for our planet

Unlike traditional potting soil ingredients that are environmentally taxing, our biochar potting mix only contains natural and carbon-negative amendments.

Read additional information about Our Mission.

How is Rosy Soil Earth friendly?

We use carbon-negative, organic ingredients to create the best indoor plant potting mix.

Typically, these organic materials are sent to a landfill, where they release methane and CO2 — two potent greenhouse gases. But by redirecting these organic materials from landfills and stabilizing their carbon structure, we prevent the release of those greenhouse gases.

Essentially, we turn our house plant soil into a carbon sink, which means it helps to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.

Discover more about what we mean by Earth Positive on Our Mission page.

What is biochar?

Biochar is nature’s soil supercharger — a form of carbon that’s created by heating organic material (like wood or plant matter) in a low-oxygen environment.

Think of it as a sponge-like charcoal made for plants. It improves soil structure, helps retain water and nutrients, and creates a thriving home for beneficial microbes. It’s also incredibly stable, meaning it stays in the soil for hundreds (even thousands!) of years — all while capturing and storing carbon that would otherwise enter the atmosphere.

Unlike peat moss, which is strip-mined from delicate wetlands, biochar is regenerative and climate-positive. It’s science-backed, time-tested, and foundational to everything we do.

Can I add Rosy to my current potting soil?

Yes! You can add Rosy to your current houseplant potting soil — whether it’s an inorganic or organic potting soil mix, cactus or orchid mix, or otherwise. 

Doing so will help you refresh your old soil and revive its benefits for plant care. 

Alternatively, you could directly replace your current houseplant soil mix with Rosy.

How many pots will a bag of Rosy Soil fill?

Our 8 Quart bag of Rosy indoor potting mix will fill:

4 to 6 medium 6" pots

Our 4 Quart bag of Rosy indoor potting mix will fill:

2 to 3 medium 6" pots

And unlike traditional indoor potting mixes, you won’t need to replace the soil every year due to compaction.

Soil Mates: Plants That Love This Mix

Biochar Booster is made for the garden — a powerful soil amendment that helps everything from tomatoes to tulips grow stronger, stay hydrated, and thrive through the season.

Vegetables like Tomatoes, Peppers, Cucumbers, Zucchini, Carrots, and Beans love the extra drainage and nutrient-holding power.

Herbs like Basil, Oregano, Mint, and Parsley benefit from improved root health and better water flow.

It also supports flowering plants like Marigolds, Sunflowers, Zinnias, and Dahlias by enriching the soil microbiome and retaining key nutrients.

You can also add it to potting soil for fruit trees, raised beds, or container gardens — or mix it into the soil at planting time for long-term improvement.

The best part? It stays in your soil for years, giving your plants (and the planet) a lasting boost.

Good Soil Isn't A Miracle

Easy To Use, Powerful Results

There’s no fancy prep required. Just sprinkle, mix, and plant.

Use it when you're building new garden beds, prepping raised planters, repotting larger plants, or refreshing tired soil. It’s fast, flexible, and gets to work right away.

Fuel for Your Soil, Not Just Your Plants

Biochar doesn’t just feed plants — it creates a thriving ecosystem underground. It holds nutrients, helps roots absorb water more efficiently, and gives beneficial microbes a place to live. The result? Stronger roots, healthier plants, and better harvests.

Peat-Free & Eco-Friendly

Every bag captures CO₂ and helps fight climate change. Unlike most potting mixes, Rosy Soil is free from peat, plastics, and synthetics — making it safe for your plants and the planet.

Perfect analysis and formula!

Many people ask what even is Biochar? How does it work? The answer is this:

Biochar works by providing a stable, porous carbon-rich material that improves soil structure, increases water retention capacity, enhances nutrient availability, and can help sequester carbon in the soil for long periods when added to the ground.

Just this 8 qt bag covers 32 sq ft of soil amendment. Perfect for our in ground garden! We used a different brand last year and were impressed, but this, well, being of an higher quality and better formula, this is the choice now! Adding this is sure to boost the soil and yield larger, stronger better harvests! I’ll be coming back for more as our garden is a little larger!

It works!

We've used this to add to potting soil for our starter plants and it has made a HUGE difference. The pots with Rosy Soil are much larger than the pots with just the potting soil.

Rich and moist

Rich and easy to spread on base of plants. Very dark and granuled soil. Feels like it is very rich and moist. Hope it will help my starving plants.

Looking forward to using

I’ve been using Rosy Soil products for the last few years for some of my houseplants, which has helped significantly. So I was really happy to see this soil amendment that I can use indoor and outdoor. I’ll be using this in an existing vegetable raised bed this spring to give the soil a boost. While it’ll take awhile to notice whether there is a difference, I’ve been loving their other products. I’m not an expert, but the quality seems high and I’ve also never had an issue with their soils producing pests (some other brands have actually created problems in my house, like having fungus gnat eggs, etc). It’s a bit pricey though. But other than that, I look forward to trying.

Good soil amendment

I ordered this as I have been wanting to work with biochar some before making my own. The cost for the bag is expensive, but its not meant to be potting soil - its meant to add to potting soil or other medium you are planting in. When talking about things like biochar, it doesn't require a lot of product - this is sufficient for a decent raised sized bed for sure, or top dressing probably 2 normal sized raised beds.

What I found interesting is that there is no mention of organic on the bag. It seems like it should be organic but without being specific about it, it eliminates the ability to use it in certified organic gardening. Not a problem from my standpoint (I am growing with organic methods but not that crazy about it).

I put it on some vegetable beds and felt that it was good consistency - not chunky and easy to work with. As to the actual claims of having mycorrhizae and such, I have no way to confirm that or discredit it. But it is a nice, dark and seemingly rich product as one might expect from a biochar and compost amendment. Time will tell if it helped out in any significant way.

Another thing to consider is that if this is indeed living soil, one must consider that when storing it. The benefits of the living soil will decline over time and keeping it in a hot environment without air may exacerbate that. So don't buy more than you need to use immediately.
