Miracle Grow Moisture Control Potting Soil

10 years ago

Does anyone know if this potting soil is great for growing veggies in pots in South Florida during the rainy season??? I want to grow tomatoes, bell peppers, jalapeÃÂ±os etc again this year but I'm curious about this soil. I don't want to have to keep moving my tomatoes like I did 2 yrs back, every time it poured out.

should be ok unless the veggies are over potted. by the time the rain really gets here your plants should be large enough to take whatever rain we get. My problem is keeping enough water on them.
