Question about this Organic Topsoil on Ebay

Im looking to buy some soil, and I know fox farms is great, but I'm kind of in a pinch. I found this soil on ebay for real cheap and was wondering what you guys had to say about it. This is copied straight from the page:

This is real soil. No peat added. Over 5 pounds of USDA Certified Organic soil. Inspected and certified by the Idaho State Dept of AG. Great for in-house Organic container vegetable and herb production.

This is the same soil we use in our Certified Organic Greenhouse. We collect it from a virgin area of our certified organic pasture. In the summer time this soil is full of earthworms and has sweet earthy oder.
Dark Volcanic Virgin Loam
Naturally high organic matter
Naturally high in calcium
Naturally high in humus
Great Biological Activity
ph of 7.2
Loam is soil composed of sand silt and clay in relatively even concentration (about 40-40-20% concentration respectively), considered ideal for gardening and agricultural uses. Loam soils generally contain more nutrients and humus than sandy soils, have better infiltration and drainage than silty soils, and are easier to till than clay soils.
Loams are gritty, moist, and retain water easily. Loam soil is ideal for growing crops because it retains nutrients well and retains water while still allowing the water to flow freely. This soil is found in a majority of successful farms in regions in Idaho and around the world known for their fertile land.


Im also thinking about adding worm castings with it. What do you guys think? Good? Would i need to add any extra nutrients?

IMHO: Looks like a good mixture to me if you do only intend to be growing with organic methods. The N might be a little high to begin with, so this will be good 'transplant to' soil, and should eat up most of the N in the veg stage just in time to start chowing down on the P for flowering. Based on the info, if i were doing an organic grow, i'd use it with no extra nutes and i'd leave out the worm castings.

Nice find, I about shit when i saw they were selling dirt on Ebay. +Rep

-On a side note, you mentioned you are doing it on the cheap (been there), and it sounds like you might be mechanically inclined (not everyone looks up dirt on ebay), by the time you buy the dirt and pay for the shipping (hopefully they ship it dry as a bone!), I was thinking you can make a hydroponics set up out of next to nothing. I once built one out of a car windshield washer fluid resevior and a plastic bottle with the bottom cut off of it stuffed into the top of the resevior, and used the 12V windshield washer pump that was already installed in the resevior. I used a 110 to 12v ac/dc adapter, had a box of them in the attic from all the electronic crap i accumulate over the years, found a 12v 2a one and used that. A few hours later I had a hydroponics setup on a timer I had picked up for about $4, with total flow adjustments from the potentiometer in a headlight dimmer switch. I went to a creek and picked up all of the most pourous 1"-2" rocks I could find, took them home and boiled them, and used them for my media. The whole grow set me back about $20, and that was for 2 bottles of fox farm nutes for the grow and veg stage. Hey, times were tough, haha. Necessity is the mother of invention.

ANYWAY, it was the best thing i have ever grown anything in to date, believe it or not, lol. It wasn't the best thing to look at, but I only showed it to all of the people I told I was growing, which equalled out to be....no one.

P.S. If you'r interrested in making a hydroponics, or bubbleponics set up for next to nothing, message me and I'll help you build it.
