Smells like perfume and does not tell what ingredients are even in it.

This bag of organic potting mix is excellent for repotting indoor houseplants, starting seeds, or refreshing small container gardens. The texture is perfectly balanced—it arrives loose, rich, and dark without being tightly packed or full of massive wood chunks. It offers phenomenal moisture retention while still draining quickly enough to prevent root rot, providing a clean, nutrient-dense foundation that helps plants establish strong root systems.

The fact that this soil has multiple types of ingredients is what sets it apart from other soils. It has a lot of organic ingredients (just a few being crab, fish, and kelp meal, along with bat guano) in addition to the worm castings. It makes it great for any plant that needs rich soil.It does have orchid bark and peat moss to help with drainage, but I think it's still too heavy for plants that don't like wet feet at all, like succulents. You'd need to ammend with a lot of perlite for better drainage if you wanted to use it for cactuses or succulents.Overall, I think it's a good blend, but it is pricey for such a small bag. It's an 8 quart bag, that will only fill up a pot that is 2 gallons (or smaller pots equalling 2 gallons). For me, that is basically just cuttings that I am trying to root and propagate. Since it's meant for plants entering or in the flowering stage, it's just not for me and my tropical plants as they need to be much bigger before they will flower and I'd need a few bags per plant pot.

A small bag of potting mix for quick and easy planting. That said, it's pretty expensive for what it is.If everything was purchased separately, for the same price, I could get a lot more product. This bag of potting mix is for those who have a small pot and want it quick and easy.For those of us who have big gardens, this potting mix is way too expensive for what it is. The quality may be good but buying everything separately will get you equally as good quality for a fraction of the price.

The texture stood out immediately. The mix contains a noticeable variety of ingredients, and it feels more like a purpose-built growing medium than a basic bag of potting soil. It was loose, easy to work with, and provided good aeration without feeling excessively chunky.Drainage was good while still retaining enough moisture for container plants. The blend of organic amendments also makes it feel like there's more going on than simply peat and filler, which is especially appealing for plants that benefit from a biologically active growing medium.The 8-quart size is best suited for a few containers or a specific repotting project rather than filling large beds, but it's a convenient quantity for indoor plants and patio containers.Overall, the mix arrived in good condition, was pleasant to work with, and provided a well-balanced growing medium for flowering and container-grown plants.

This appears to be a very good quality potting mix, and I really like the ingredient list. It contains worm castings, kelp meal, bat guano, fish meal, crab meal, orchid bark and other organic amendments that I like seeing in a nutrient rich soil for flowering plants.The mix has a nice texture and is very easy to use straight from the bag. It feels well blended and has enough structure to provide drainage while still retaining moisture well, so the soil doesn’t seem to dry out immediately after watering. I like the balance between moisture retention and aeration.From a quality and ease of use standpoint, I really don’t have a complaint. My issue is the value for the money. At around $25 for only 8 quarts, it’s simply too expensive for me. That’s not much soil once you start filling larger pots or several containers.I like the ingredients, moisture retention and overall quality, but $25 for 8 quarts of potting soil is a no for me. I would be much more likely to purchase it again at a lower price or in a larger bag for the same price.

The organic soil mix composition quality is very good. The texture is dark, fluffy, and well-aerated with perlite, avoiding the dense, compacted wood chips found in cheap bulk potting soils.I used this 8-quart blend to pot up flowering patio containers, and the combination of bat guano, kelp meal, and worm castings provided sustained nutrition that produced vibrant blooms without immediate chemical fertilizer spikes. It retains moisture evenly while allowing excess water to drain freely, protecting delicate root systems from stagnation. The bag is right-sized to store in a garden bench without hauling heavy bags. It has an earthy, high-end organic gardening aesthetic vibe.

There's a good amount of soil in this. Enough for a small pot to get some plants started. Right now I'm incubating a mango seed in it. Seems to be doing well. The water drains well. It doesn't water log. I didn't feel the need to amend it with any perlite or coco coir. It is good as is. And I didn't amend it with any worm castings or other nutrient source. It is solid as is for the time being. Regardless, I'm most concerned about drainage with soil mixes as I can add nutrients throughout the year. This is good to me. It has good packaging. Easy to open and seal up. This is a good mix. I like it

Great potting mix! My plants have bloomed beautiful after adding this soil. Good mix texture.

Possibly in response to being repotted into a larger pot, but likely due in part to this soil, my plants are thriving. I had to repot a few hanging plants that were obviously root bound and struggling. This is a bit pricey for the quantity you get compared with larger bags you can get at a local nursery, but I suppose if you're planting what they're expecting you to plant, you might spend a little extra on high quality soil.

I have been using this soil for my indoor plants and have seen a noticeable difference in how they are growing. The mix seems to be high quality right out of the bag and it has excellent drainage which is exactly what I needed to prevent root rot. My plants have been thriving since I repotted them and they seem much happier with the consistency of the medium. It is easy to work with and does not stay waterlogged for too long after watering. I am very satisfied with how well my plants have taken to this mix and will definitely keep using it for my indoor (and outdoor) greenery.

I picked up this potting mix for a large planter, and I’ve been very happy with it. The mix has a nice texture and seems to provide plenty of nutrients for healthy plant growth. My plants have been thriving since I repotted them, which is really all I can ask from a good potting soil. Great mix and I’d definitely use it again!

This potting mix is true premium quality and visually reflects all the organic ingredients promised on the bag. It is a dark, rich, well-draining soil mix that provides great aeration for healthy root growth. Results have been excellent so far, with strong early performance on gleam nasturtiums. For the premium price, it delivers top-notch quality and a nutrient-dense blend that flowering plants clearly thrive in.

I received a bag with 8 quarts of Sticky Blooms potting mix.My first thought was that it was an awfully small bag for the price of $24.99, which is what it was at the time of my ordering. To speak honestly, I would not pay that much for this amount, even if it is really great soil. I do happen to live close to several gardening stores and I’m used to getting pretty giant bags of potting soilfor a lot less.Regarding the actual product, how can they go wrong with bat guano, kelp and worm castings? Any gardener will know that these things will make a wonderful soil. When I opened the bag, the soil looked like beautiful quality. It was fairly dry and fluffy with some little chunks. It smelled fresh and appealing. Apparently it smelled really good to my cat.The bag is resealable, which is always handy, especially if you’re doing small repotting projects.

I do quite a bit of planting and gardening, and I like that this is more than just basic potting soil. The mix contains bat guano, kelp, and worm castings, so it already has a nutrient-rich blend intended specifically for flowering plants. The texture is loose enough to work with easily when potting and doesn't feel like the dense, compacted soil I've gotten with some bagged mixes. I've been using it for flowering plants in containers, and it holds moisture well without immediately turning into a heavy muddy mess. The 8-quart bag is a convenient size for repotting several smaller plants or a couple of larger containers. I especially like having the odorless organic amendments already incorporated rather than having to purchase and mix several separate products myself. A convenient, good-quality soil blend for container flowers and other blooming plants at a great value.

This potting mix contains more than just a basic soil blend, with ingredients like orchid bark, worm castings, kelp meal, and bat guano listed in the product description. The mix looked clean and had a nice texture with visible bark pieces throughout. The 8-quart bag is on the small side for the price, so I probably wouldn't use it to fill a lot of containers. Instead, I think it's better suited for favorite plants or specialty varieties that you want to give a little extra care. If you're looking for a more premium potting mix for flowering plants, this seems like a nice option—just be aware that the bag doesn't go very far.

This is an extremely nutrient-rich soil, perfect for flowering plants with extremely high nutrient needs or as a mixer for other potting soils. The concentration of nutrients in this soil is ideal for long-term fertility stability. I am super happy with this product; you can literally tell how nutrient-dense it is just from opening the bag and looking at it. I ordered this specifically to repot a 5-year-old wisteria tree that I am growing as a bonsai project. It has really high nutrient needs during its growth and flowering periods, and I was totally unable to keep up with it using standard fertilizers. This product seems to have helped it immensely : it looked better after only a few days and even showed noticeable new growth. It holds moisture really well, but not to a problematic degree.

I haven’t planted in this Soil Sunrise “Sticky Blooms” potting mix yet, but I’m already very impressed just from opening the bag. The soil looks fresh, healthy, and has a nice chunky texture with excellent aeration and looks like it will hold moisture well. What I really like is that it already includes quality amendments like worm castings, bat guano, and kelp, exactly the things I usually end up mixing in myself. This should make transplanting much simpler and more effective, I’ll be doing a couple of small transplants this weekend, can't wait to see the results. So far, the presentation, texture, and smell all look and feel premium. The bag is also well-designed and resealable. Excited to see how well this soil works, this seems like a great choice for anyone growing flowering plants! Recommended based on first impressions.

The potting mix has a nice texture, feels rich, and was easy to work with when potting my flowering plants. I like that it contains ingredients like worm castings, kelp, and bat guano, and it seems like a thoughtfully blended mix for encouraging healthy growth.Since I just planted everything, it's too early to know how much of a difference the soil will make over time. Only time will tell how well my plants respond, but my first impression of the mix has been very positive.

I got this potting mix to use with my indoor and outdoor plants. I have a bunch of philos, monsteras and hibiscus. I do mix it with other ingredients to make it a bit chunkier for my indoor plants. There is no strong odor and smells like soil. When mixing i would recommend dampening it first as the soil is rather powdery and kicks up “dust” clouds. Other than that it mixes well. It looks good and dark like worm castings with little bits or orchid bark. It seems to be of good quality as my plants are very happy and thriving. Having it in a resealable bag makes it easier to use and store. Really good nutrient rich soil for those tropical plants. Nice price.

Overall I think this is a good option as a potting mix. I needed to repot some hibiscus and other plants, so they all got a soil refresh with this potting mix.First, I would advise soaking it a bit before use or underfilling the pot a bit or bottom watering after filling the pot, as it started off kind of hydrophobic. I top watered my plants after filling the pots with soil and the water pooled and gurgled for a few minutes before settling in and the temporarily standing water displaced the plants a bit from where I'd put them.Aside from that, so far my plants seem happy with their new environment.

This is a great potting mix for just about any plant. It has the nutrients that new plants need. I am a pretty new gardener, and I’ve used this potting mix successfully to plant basil, thyme, mint and sage that I first rooted in water. The potting mix is not overly heavy and my new little cuttings are growing beautifully.My rating system:5 ⭐️ exceeded my expectations4 ⭐️ met my expectations3 ⭐️ slightly below my expectations2 ⭐️ Did not meet expectations1 ⭐️ Not worth spending money on at allGiftable: yesFinal thought: I would get this again and I recommend it.[Note: Amazon Vine's program allows reviewers to share their honest opinion in exchange for the product being provided at no upfront cost.
