I have to agree with TE in the not using Miracle-Gro potting soil. I have never had any luck with anything I have used it for. I have never lost any plants, but they just never did very well. I use Fafard #2 and add hardwood bark fines to it if I want more drainage. Also like TE I love Miracle grow fertilizer and use it when I feed. I just don’t like fertilizer in my soil as I like to decide when and how much fertilizer to use.
