Back to The Roots Organic Seed Starting, Compressed Block expands to 12 Quarts, Made for Herbs, Veggies, Flowers

I was skeptical when I first got this but wow am I impressed! This stuff is great. Better than description and it expanse a lot....a whole lot. Very easy to work with too. I am placing more orders. Very quick delivery too. Buy it. You wont regret it. Perfect for starting seeds, soil amendment and more.

Seems like coco coir, I'm not sure how to measure the nutrient content or dust content, but it didn't seem "dusty" to me. It retains moisture very well and some of my seeds came up in days. I used the 5-pack of 3x4 cells with moisture-retaining hoods. How do you measure how durability it is? I don't know. The size is compressed, so it grows a lot, like me when the college jogging team comes by. I'm sure it has nutrients.

A very nice soil that is rather fine. It's excellent for starting seeds and nurturing young seedlings. Highly recommend.

I really like this product. My seeds are coming up really well. I have used it in pots as well as trying my hand at seed snails. It was a real good value for the price. I only took away one star because I went to order another package and it went from $7.99 to $11.99 in a week. I'm not thrilled about that.

This Back to The Roots Organic Seed Starter is really easy to use and a good value. It retains moisture well and expands to fill several pots (12 quarts). It has good consistency and some of the seedlings appear to be starting to sprout. A good value for a nice-sized block of compressed starter, I would purchase this product again; five stars from me.

I picked this up to start some seeds, and it worked really well. My seeds sprouted without any issues. One thing I liked is that you don’t have to use the whole block at once, you can cut off a small portion with a knife and just use what you need. Important tip: don’t add water to the entire block if you’re only using a small piece. Hydrate just the portion you plan to use so you don’t end up wasting the rest.

I love this product. It is packaged in a container that works well, when water is added…a Big PLUS!

I have always been successful starting seeds. This time, I started a bunch of Tomato seeds in the fall, hoping they will be giant by spring. I took very good care of them in the indoor seed starging system with plant lights. Seeds sprouted, but they struggled so much, they remained only for 3/4 inch height and eventually died. I concluded there are something wrong in this product. I don't recommend you to purchse it.
