Seedling Soil

At the recommendation of the Rosy Soil people I bought the seedling soil for my microgreens. I love the rich dark color. I had a feeling that the bio char and worm castings would be beneficial and they are. My micro greens were ready 2 days earlier than usual. My husband and I both felt their flavor was improved!

I love that this soil does not have that awful chunky white rocky stuff in it - forgive me, I forget what it's called but it's in most soils. With Rosy Soil I'm getting 100% growing medium that's rich and robust.

Historically one uses some sort of seaweed fertilizer for micro greens. I have not felt the need to do this with my Rosy Soil - which is nice, it's one less thing to fuss with, and one less expense. I'm getting highly nutrient dense micro greens with just this great soil.

This is a resealable bag which is useful to me to properly store the unused soil for later. As advertised I noticed less transplant shock for my pothos which I propagated in water first before transplanting in a pot. My plant looks healthy.

I start veggie seeds every February using starter mix without soil. Many people don't realize that everything that seedling needs for the first few weeks is right inside the seed. No nutrients are taken up from the surrounding soil until feeder roots are well developed. This seed mix is great because it's sterile -- no fungus or bacteria to damp off the baby plant -- and it has a light nutrient content that nourishes the seedling after its roots finally start to develop. It holds water without getting soggy or heavy. So you can start your seeds in 3 inch pots if you want, no transplanting until you're ready to put them out in the garden in April.

I love this soil! Holds moisture well especially for germinating seeds! Biggest plus is the organic additives. No peat moss or synthetic fertilizers whatsoever. My seedlings started to germinate in three days and sprouted!

I've been using this soil to start my garden off this year. And I've had high germination planting seeds directly into this soil. I would recommend transplanting once your started your seeds because I find the it will dry a bit quick once the plants are a couple of weeks old. The main thing I notice, is the drainage is great, but this also means it will dry out quicker. This mix works great for new seedling starting, and the root growth has been extremely quick. Everything's produced a great green color and I'm happy with the start I had to the garden this year with this soil.

First of all, it is difficult to ignore the price tag of this premium soil mix. It is expensive. But after seeing, handling and using it for my houseplants, I cannot deny that this soil is different.

I normally buy brand name general, all purpose potting soil. Rosy soil is much darker, richer and denser than normal potting soil. No fillers, it doesn't dry out, and it comes in a resealable bag.

To compensate for the expense, I combined the Rosy soil with the regular potting mix the last time I repotted some of my houseplants. The plants cannot talk, but if they could. I think they would thank me!

Love the Company, respect the mission, appreciate the quality, and grateful for the impeccable shipping and service.

Checks all the boxes for me....AND my plants!

I was excited to receive this rosy soil so that I could start my flower seeds indoor this year. The package says that it is also good for propagating plants, which is a huge plus!! The bag has a great pull tab to easily unseal the package, and then it is resealable! The mix seems to be a very high quality. It has bark in it which is good for aeration. It is a very dark color, nearly black, so you may want to wear gloves when handling. The only downside is that because the color of the soil is so dark naturally, it is hard to tell when it is moist (and of course you want to make sure your soil stays moist when starting seedlings). I am already looking into buying more rosy products for my other soil and planting needs!

I love this potting soil. It’s pricey, but well worth the extra money when it come to healthy house plants. I always have a bag on hand now for repotting and new house plants.
