79% appreciated its optimal ph level, though 21% found it too acidic
The soil is extremely dry and does not absorb water.
The soil in the pot is entirely fine peat which floats right out.
I noticed a strange acrid smell coming from the soil that seems toxic.
82% appreciated its ability to suppress weeds, although 18% found it didn't work as well as expected
I suggest drying out the soil where fungus gnats lay their eggs and larvae, but it killed 90% of my plants due to lack of water.
I had to throw away all the plants I used this soil on and wash the pots to finally control the problem, indicating that the soil was not effective in suppressing weeds.
