Fungas gnats
Bought a bag last week to repot two plants. All in that area of the house now have gnats. I blamed a new plant for the infestation until I found the gnats flying around the bag of soil.

Should be called Gnats Galore
I am very disappointed in this Miracle Grow product. I bought 3 bags to create a succulent potted garden for my wife's Mother's Day present. Needless to say that every bag had Gnats in them. A week before Mother's Day I noticed the plants were suffering also. Spoiled my surprise... I couldn't let her see this. I have used Miracle Grow products for years and can't understand what happened. I even used MIracle Grow Organics for my vegetable starts and guess what I have one gnat in my office where I do my plantings. Now I have them from this product in that room and had to sprinkle cinnamon on my already started vegetable starts. Praying this works... Totally sucks...

Extremely Disappointed!!!!
Why did you change this soil???!! It has been perfect for years, but this year, it’s terrible!! I’ve potted plants for years and have never once had an issue with the soil not drying. I have almost 100 houseplants, and I have used this soil to repot every one of them without any issues. The last 3 plants I’ve purchased and potted with this new soil have ALL DIED due to root rot!! I’ve even added in a bag of Perlite, Orchid Bark, AND lava rocks!! I don’t have all the money in the world, so when three plants die that you just purchased, it’s upsetting. Especially bc it was the first time I had ever seen these plants, so I can’t just go back and buy more. Please go back to the previous formula because this composition is absolutely terrible!!!!! R

This is how I do it!
I’ve been using miracle grow potting mixes for years. Yes the soil is unsterilized. My method is simple . I add Bonide Systemic Houseplant Insect Control to any and all potting mixes. This will help keep pests out of your life. Nobody wants these little beast flying around their home. To ensure they don’t come back,as they do like wet soil. After 3-6 months I apply a tablespoon of the systemic to each and every plant in my collection. To lighten the cactus mix add equal parts perlite to improve drainage.

Fungus Gnats and Peat Moss
This soil brought lots of fungus gnat eggs into my home and does not even drain quickly as it is supposed to. It is very peat moss heavy and retains moisture forever.

Plants are flourishing despite all the fungus gnat
I bought two bags of this product and repotted a staghorn and half a dozen holiday cactus. The plants are indoor plants and haven’t been outdoors. I was astonished to discover all the fungus gnats that have been coming from the dirt. I actually saw some fly out of the bag when I opened them. I had to purchase tacky sticks to try to address the problem. I’m actually considering treating the soil itself to stop potential future hatchings. Very disgusted!

Devastated
Last year I decided to not let living in an apartment keep me from growing & keeping plants something I have loved most my life since my grandfather taught me how to garden as a child. So I have only bought Miracle Grow brand soils since the beginning of my endeavor last year. Shortly after I started noticing the gnats not thinking much of it I ignored this (big mistake) within a matter of weeks most my plants were dead dying or not growing & looking sickly after turning to the internet & a few professionals for answers I was told I had a serious fungus gnat problem so serious that I ended up disposing of everything from the plants to my pots & gardening accessories for good measure. Then had to very thoroughly clean every surface & surrounding where my plants had been. Discouraged it took me a while to want to attempt to have plants again but I did this time w/ Christmas Cactuses & some ivys so again I buy Miracle Grow soil the Cactus/succulent blend & some other reg Miracle Grow potting soil in a matter of days the gnats were back I was livid cause never in a million years did it occur to me that it was my dependable name brand soil that caused all this damage. I checked the leftover soil in the bags that were stored in a sealed bucket & sure enough eggs lots of them even showed the soil to a person who works at nursery to confirm & they said it was definitely infested. Should have read the reviews for this I blame myself but I still can't believe a company that's been considered a household name & is so trusted by so many would allow for this to not just happen but continue to happen I get that after something leaves their wearhouse or packing plants that it's hard to control every aspect of the product but surely something could be done to better protect from these things? Now I'm fighting to keep my remaining plants alive since it seems I'm locked into an on going battle with these pests. My Birds of Paradise are starting to look terrible it really is depressing to see.
