Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I used this mix with the railing planters, and so far, I have been very impressed. I planted flowers a week ago, and they are doing great. I watered the flowers well once I have planted them, and I have not had to water them again this week. We have had a little rain, but not a lot. It has not been as hot as it will get later in the summer, but I'm guessing that, even then, I will only need to water 3 times a week, rather than every day, which is what I have had to do in the past, with anything planted on my deck

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This drought-resistant container mix is amazing! It is so light weight, that I didn't need my husband to lug the heavy soil bags to the back yard! The water absorbing polymer in the soil really does what it is supposed to do...keep moisture in the soil so less watering is needed! I am using mine in containers for my garden in my new greenhouse and it works great for new seedlings as well as established plants. You just need to remember to add some plant food every once in a while with your waterings. Overall, an excellent product!

I use this soil in my planters on the deck. In the past my mid-summer all my flowers were dead. I either watered too much or too little...just couldn't win. So far my pansies look great. Will do more planting and wait to see how they look by mid July but so far so good.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

Nice lightweight soil mix for balcony type flower and herb planters that do not have automatic watering systems. Price for the 32 quart size is very economical, especially after I checked pricing for similar products at the "Big Box" stores.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

don't worry about rain. should not use the mix on windy days because it blows all over.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I use this mixture for my deck railing containers that contain herbs. It is perfect and if I forgot to water for a few nights it's okay because it doesn't dry out too fast.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This soil mix has been a lifesaver for me! I travel a lot for work and last year lost many plants to under-watering. This year I used this mix in new pots and my plants are thriving--and I haven't watered them YET! Amazing! For a perfect mix, add a time release plant food. I'll be using this Drought Resistant Container Mix in ALL my pots from now on!

This new drought resistant potting soil is a must have for flowerboxes and any container planting. It's light and so easy to work with---retains moisture and allows all my plantings to thrive.

I used the in my deck railing planters. It seems to hold moisure very well and my lettuce and herbs are growing well in this mixture.

I live in a micro-climate on the Central Coast of California that goes to triple digits in the summer...this is a superb product for areas that are hot!!!! My Coleus', Geraniums & Asparagus Ferns look fabulous...and have NEVER wilted or drooped with average waterings.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

We purchased this product due to a polite recommendation from the on line salesperson that took our order. She described the probability of the pot drying out because of nature of it hanging on a railing. We mixed this product with our own peat and black dirt and the flowers are flourishing and have not had the soaking/drying out cycles most summer pots go through. The dirt holds moisture very well.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I used this container mix in my new self-watering whiskey barrel. It gets hot and dry in Texas, but my plants have plenty of moisture and are thriving!

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I live in the desert. I usually have to water my potted plants daily. This has decreased my watering frequency. Love it!

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

MN has been in drought this spring. Glad to have this product.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I got this soil mostly for the Topsey Tervey tomatoe hanginer, & am useing it in all my hanging plants. Soil stay good & moist & the plants look VERY happy.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This is the first year I've used this product. The plants in my pots/planters are responding extremely well. Because the location is quite sunny & can be very hot, I like the knowledge that the plants will not be as likely to dry out so quickly & suffer from lack of moisture.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This mix is very helpful in large containers on my deck.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

The soil was used in planters on a deck that gets a lot of sun. The flowers have done extremely well and the veggies...lettuce and chard planted in pots have done well too.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I was so surprised to see how fast everything grew. Was using it for my Calla Lily bulbs that had started to sprout. They grew so fast they beat the outdoor planting time so i had to put in bigger pots till i can get them oudoors. Will use it outside in the garden as soon as i can.. Am going to put it in my Window boxes i purchased from you.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I am hoping to let my garden club members know that we need to use this product in our potted herbs this summer.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

The place I use the soil in is in the sunny. With plain old top soil, the flowers had to be watered twice a day. Now once a day or even every other day

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I love it for my planters, if it had even more crystals it would be perfect. But it is really good anyways and it worth the price.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

It packs down quite a bit.
You use more than you expect to.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

Not only are we having a major drought this year, but we use this product mainly in small planter boxes that decorate a fence in sunny, high-wind area. Never thought those plants would survive, but they are thriving in this container mix. Best buy of the year!

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I have a weekend house and am not available to water all week. This soil mix is perfect for me and the flowers look great.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

foung this to be great for hanging planters

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I used this mix in a large pot in which I planted 2 tomato plants. They seem to be triving.

One plant, a volunteer that grew in my office, is especially heathly with plenty of fruit.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I don't like this soil at all. It had so many twigs and other trash items that had to be picked out of the soil as you were planting a plant. This type of soil would be fine for large plants that already have an established root system but for small plants, it would be difficult for their root systems to get started if the twigs, etc. were left in the soil. Use of it was additional chore to planting plants.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I am learning about container gardening after moving from a home to an apt. Am trying mini ponds & bogs, self watering plant containers, & having great success with your products.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I use this product in containers as it is light and retains water well.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I use this soil in all my potted plants and outdoor planters. Plants grow faster because of consistant moisture levels. Greatly reduces watering need for indoor plants.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This product is recommended for use wit the living walls. Sharp drainage is needed for the types of plants used in these walls, so I would not recommend this soil for that application.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

Loved this soil! So different from so many other soil concoctions that are hard to wet. I loved the way it felt in my hands as I was mixing it. I think anything would grow well in it.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This is a very good idea and probably sufficient for areas with summer humidity. However, for an exteremely arid and intensely sunny climate like that in Colorado, there is still not enough water absorbing benefit. I had to add more water absorbing crystals to get the results I needed.

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

I grow perennials in containers where the wind blows a lot, drying the soil out. This Drought Resistant Container Mix holds moisture longer than other polymer products I have used. It saves on water, watering time, and conserves the nutrients for the plants use. I have converted all my containers to this mix. Thanks, Gardner's Supply!!!

Comments about Drought-Resistant Container Mix:

This stuff is great if you're like me and forget to water the poor container plants in this summer heat!
