Recent Question from Gardeners
Question
Kellog Garden Soil
I have been using this product for three years now, however this year, the soil I bought now seems to be riddled with ivy!!! I have been pulling them out as they sprout, but curious if anyone has had this issue as well. I am in northern CA (near Sacramento) and purchased at Lowes.
Answer
I have used the Kellog brand garden soil in the past and not had any problems however it's not out the question that some seeds or rhizomes were not fully composted during the manufacturing process. I would contact the Kellog garden soil company directly perhaps they have had other complaints.
