    A: The Miracle-Gro Seed Starting Potting Mix may contain decomposed forest materials, sphagnum peat moss, and horticultural grade perlite. Since these are produced regionally, the ingredients will vary. This product may also contain an all purpose fertilizer, which would be noted on the label.

    A: Miracle-Gro Seed Starting Potting Mix is packaged by volume rather than by weight. The varying moisture levels make it impossible to determine the weight. If you have additional questions please contact us at 888-295-6902.

Q: How long does the seed starter fertilizer last? How long does it feed for?  Weeks? Months?

8 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: Miracle-Gro Seed Starting Potting Mix does not have a shelf life or expiration date. However manures, compost, and mulch will decompose over time. For best results, keep the product in a dry location, up off of cement floors. Potting mixes support plant development by providing a light-weight, nutrient-rich environment for root growth. Miracle-Gro potting mixes are formulated to absorb and release water as your container plant needs it. We would recommend that you use the potting soil for a couple months to get the seeds started and then transplant them.

Excellent performance

a month ago
This has been an incredible potting mix/seed starter mix! I actually used it to nurture my seedlings that grew in my hydroponic system. They did beautifully! I was amazed at its performance, it kept them alive and thriving til I was able to transplant outdoors. It was very fluffy and alllowed water to easily drain. No mold, no pests, and virtually weightless. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to start seeds!
