I'm interested in reviews of potting soil purchased by the cubic yard in the Seattle area for starting seeds in containers (perennials, shrubs, annuals, vegetables, & herbs). I'm hoping to save time, money, & energy by getting it bulk.

Miracle Grow (HD in Kent) sells for $13.47 for 2.5 cu ft

It would take 10.8 bags of the 2.5 cu ft MGrow to equal a cubic yard & the cost would be $145.48 + tax. Purchasing a cubic yard in bulk at Carpinitos in Kent can save me $100 over the retail bags. They sell 2 types:

Pro Greenhouse mix $49.95 a cubic yard

North Country brand $36.95 a cubic yard

I was told it's not sold by weight, but staff eyeballs the load. Does anyone have experience with this?

Here is a link that might be useful: Carpinitos
