The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company

I have looked at the offerings of the industry in soils fertilizers and herbacides and Scotts Miracle-​Gro is tops. There products are excellent, the company stands behind their products and they are regularly improving. I recommend their products

bought the «moisture control» miracle-​gro. It killed all my plants! I had herbs as well as house plants, and all of them died. One of my houseplants I had for 15 years and never had a problem with re-​potting it. Once I used this moisture control miracle-​gro — it’s gone and there’s no reviving it. :(

Scotts® Turf Builder® EZ Seed is the worst product I’ve ever bought. The claim that it’ll grow grass anywhere is so wrong. Total waste of money, will never buy the product again and I’ll make sure friends and family never do so either. Too bad Scotts usually has descent yard care products.
Signed,
Very disappointed :-(

This company produces the best product for home and garden. If I have ever had a problem with anything involving their products, their team of customer service reps have always been helpful and willing to make things right.
It is a fantastic company and I would never use any other brand. Thank you Scotts for all your help!

According to my local Home Depot gardening specialist (thank you for the heads up) this company markets a whole line of soils called «Organic Choice» that are not actually organic (as consumers generally understand that term).
I was specifically looking for organic soil to grow vegetables and was duped by the big green bag and the huge words «Organic» on the front of the package. If you turn the package around however, in very fine print at the very bottom there’s a certification from the Mulch and Soil Council («MSC») which also contains a disclaimer stating that the product certification provided by the MSC on this product does NOT guarantee that there are no pesticides in the product.
WTF?
So, Scotts Miracle-​Gro is selling soil called «organic» that might contain pesticides? That’s what the Home Depot garden specialist told me. When I told them I wanted organic soil, they told me not to buy the «Organic Choice» products by Scotts Miracle-​Gro. Instead I was pointed to Kellogg soils.
Shame on Scott’s Miracle-​Gro for marketing soils that may contain pesticides as «organic». How is this legal? (I guess I should’ve known better after reading that the main ingredient in the fake organic soil is actually chicken sh*t. Were these «organic» chickens? I doubt it.) But double-​shame on Scott’s Miracle-​Gro for not showing the MSC’s disclaimer about not guaranteeing the product is pesticide free on the label for «Organic Choice» on the Miracle Gro website. Very, very deceiving to say the least. This is no accident. Someone somewhere in the company made a decision to leave this info off the web.
Bottom Line: They’re selling products labeled «Organic» that are not (according to my local Home Depot). Again, shame on Scott’s Miracle-​Gro.
