Hello everyone.
Just wondering if any one has used this soil company in Durango.
Soiled Rotten.
Boasts being Organic, was wondering what their soil was like?
Any help would be welcome.

since no one has used the company.
I will be the first to report that the soil seems to be acceptable.
I will check in and list the amendments I make to the soil over the growing season.
Give a final report at the end.
Right now it is holding water very well, no PH problems as of yet, plants have made a nice transition from Sunshine #4 into this organic compost mix.
So we will see.
Good customer service as well.

Update.
I have had the plants in the ground Just over a month and I am Pleased.
Took me a minute to get the Organic soil thing, I think I got it now.
And this soil is pretty good, So far.
I have a couple in grow bags in holes in the ground, I have holes in the ground that are 13" across and atleast 30" deep.
I have a couple that I mixed with perilite.
And most of them are just open holes with this soil poured in.
I have used Organicare Fulvic acid, Humic acid, Calplex, and Seaplex on the soil. One treatment so far.
Very happy so far. Was a little freaked out to go from Sunshine#4 to this soil. Seems to be all smiles so far.

DMG3528-
I am interested! Do you know if they distribute up North to Denver area? I currently use happyfrog (which has to be ph-tested and ph-adjusted with each bag being slightly different in my experience) adjusted with Dolomite lime and Perlite. I have pretty good results with this (as long as I make sure the ph is 6.5 before I start..), but I would love to switch to something more local. I wonder if we can get a complete list of ingredients...? I'll check into that now but thanks for the info and I'd love to see pics:)

I will get pic's in the morning. I am at the office in the middle of a trim, so I can't just run out there and get them.
I don't know how much they would want you to buy to get them that far north. I am sure they would go its just how much you need.
I have not added any ph buffers at all. This is amazing.

p.s. check back in the am my time. Ill get some good pics.

These three are all very happy in this soil.
They get watered once a day, in the am.
They are:
Bruce Banner #1 on the top of the pic.
White Berry on the right of the pic.
Purple Passion on the left of the pic.

I won't give recomendation's on the soil untill the end of the year.
It really does look good so far.

Wow, they look super happy indeed and that is actually a pretty sweet pic with the rough Colorado landscape behind the plants. I'm gonna look into them futher and then maybe pick up a monster-load when make a little Colorado road-trip to pick up apples and peaches later this year:) Thanks for the pic and I'll be interested to see how they finish!
