I top off my growing potatos w/ Transplant mix. I mix it into all of my beds with some of the heavier soils to keep the soil lighter. It's one of my favorite products! I've been buying Transplant Mix for the past ten years and would recommend it to everybody!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I start my seedlings in Gardener's Supply Germinating Mix and, when tall enough, put them in six-packs filled with transplant mix. These are placed in a tray with a clear plastic cover, and kept close to overhead fluorescent lights. When big enough they are then transplanted into pint-sized containers and filled with transplant mix. I have never had 'damp-off' or lost a healthy seedling. It cannot be improved. I've been using it for decades.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
The transplant mix is a must for those of us who start from seed. It has a great texture for taking seedlings to the next step..strengthening the seedlings before planting outside. I use it in combination with cowpots to create a good root structure before planting.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I am using this mix for the first time for my indoor under lights seedlings and also adding it to my outdoor container vegs. The indoor plants are growing nicely. the weather has been too cold to plant tomatoes etc. in my outdoor container garden so I can't comment on how well they will do just yet. However I expect even better results than my indoor plants.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I've used this product for years as part of my seed starting routine and the plants have always done very well. It's a good mix to use, as it's relatively lightweight until mixed with water but then absorbs the water quickly when I'm ready to use it. The texture is perfect for the "one step up" after the seeds start off in germinating mix.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I used this product not only for transplanting but for seed starting too. I found the mix to be light which is good. There wasnt any debris in the mix ie: twigs or rocks.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Once the plants outgrow the cells, this medium provides excellent growth before the plants go out into the garden.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Great transplant mix. I moved my tomato and pepper seedlings over using this soil and they just took off like weeds. This is a GREAT transplant mix.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Once they are big enough,this is what I always transplant my seedlings into (using 32-oz.empty yogurt containers with holes punched in the bottom). I grow tomatoes, eggplant, basil, bell peppers, and a few flowers (snapdragons, this year) and I have absolutely no "cons" about this transplant mix--I can see no posible reason for using anything else. The tomatoes, especially, always outgrow the plsnt stand of their infancy and start hitting their heads on the lights. They demand to be planted outside (where they sometimes just stand around doing nothing because it's a little too chilly for them).

With using the Transplant mix in conjunction with the Germinating mix all I grow, does excellent. I always use this mix when transplanting to bigger grow pots. It is a wonderful product.

Easy to use when transplanting small seedlings and plants. Holds moisture well.

Use in the flower boxes
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Used this for several seasons and like it for both flower and vegetable seedlings coming out of the APS systems. Helps them get good root growth before the final transplant outside. Haven't noticed any problems with then transplanting into regular soil either.

This soil mix offers an easy transition from seedlings to hardening off for the garden
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is a great soil to transplant seedlings into larger pots. Keeps healthy seedlings healthy.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is a great product, and it's not easy to find a good source for soilless mix by mail order. [...] In addition to potted plants I use this product for sowing seeds of many plants.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
t has replaced your Germinating Mix and, God forbid, your Organic Seed Starting Mix, which are entirely too dense, have too much peat and too many ingredients to let water saturate and run through them. Moisture sits atop the mix, turning to algae and seeds do not germinate. i lost 8 trays of seeds this Spring using the Germinating mix. So, use the Transplant mix for seeds as wells as transplants.

HELPED BRING BACK TO LIFE 2 PLANTS UPON TRANSPLANTING
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
The Gardeners Supply Transplant Mix supports delicate transplants (started in the Germinating Mix), throughout the entire time from transplanting until they are large enough to harden off and plant out in the garden.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This transplanting medium is absolutely perfect for your baby plants, taking them from Gardener's Supply Germination Mix to this Transplanting Medium is wonderful. There are no fillers such as bark in this as there are in regular potting soil, so there is nothing but this beautiful soft mix for your plants' roots to feel their way into, nothing to compact them, nothing to hinder their growth.You won't regret purchasing this!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This product has been very successful for me over the years. I start all my vegetable garden from seeds,transplant them to larger pots using this mix,and keep them in my greenhouse until planting time late in May.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I buy at least two bags every year, primarily for use in potting up seedlings I have grown. It is light weight, drains well, doesn't clump, and is fine enough for tender seedlings.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
My transplants get a great start using the transplant mix.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
My seedlings are growing beautifully in this mix - just waiting for the weather to catch up so I can finally plant them!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is the only transplant mix I will use on my seedlings. I have been using this product for years and will continue to do so.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I have used this mix for many years now, as I grow seedlings indoors for my son's vegetable garden (modestly sized urban back and front yard plots). It is easy to use and seedlings seem to find it nourishing; I add the seedlng fertilizer to it as an extra help for the little guys (usually tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, basil).
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Good amount of transplant mix for the price. It works well for my young plants.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
If your seedling is outgrowing its starting pot the transplant mix will do a great job of getting your plant to its final garden spot.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I'm not good enough at transplanting yet to do it with starts, so I used this mix in the bottom of the cells and used seed starter on the top. Worked like a charm.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Great to use when move seedlings up to bigger pots from their sprouting mix.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
good transplant mix that works as well as any name brand mix without all the added chemicals. Another product we have used for years.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
My order had the transplant mix on backorder so I had to run out to the store to buy some other mix. I transplanted many of my seedling with the store bought product and that soil is drying out soooo fast. The GSC transplant mix I used for the remaining seedlings stays moist much longer without actually being wet. Really like this product and have no doubt I'll be using it again. Size of the bag was just what I needed (and will have more left over) to transplant 48 seedlings to cowpots.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I have been using this product for many years as a
starting medium for my veggie plants that I start
indoors. I use larger pots with this transplanting
mixture so I do not have to repot from smaller
ones with the usual starting seed mixture. Saves
time and money in the long run.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I have used this product for many years. It's just what I need since I start my own plants in the APS system. I have never had any problem with transplanting my plants since I started using this product.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This soil had the least number of sticks etc of any i have seen. Came properly moistened in manageable bags (I am old).
Great product.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I usually love Garden Supply soilless mixes and have excellent luck with their products in the past, but this last bag I received didn't measure up to the usual outstanding standards. There were large twigs, and other large chunks of wood pieces in the bag and well as very long, wiry plant material. I don't know if they are using a different supplier but the quality was not the same as last years' product.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
If you use the germinating mix, this is a great first transplant mix. With this you usually don't need a second transplant before planting in the garden.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I use the transplant mix when I transplant all my seedlings.I retains water better than others I've tried, so I don't have to water as often.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Transplant mix is great as a germinating mix for hardy easy-germinating seedlings, such as tomatoes. It saves me a step because I don't have to pot-up these seeds. With a good seedling fertilizer, it gives a great start to many plants.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is the first season I've tried planting from seed. As such I wanted to have the right materials for success, and this transplant soil works wonderfully. I simply place my seedling pellets into a larger coconut husk pot with the transplant soil in it--in a few days they are ready to be hardened off. I like that this soil bag is not too heavy and the soil texture is light and fluffy. I'm not doing too many seeds all at once so the smallish bag suits my purposes fine.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
My first time using the transplant mix. So far so good. Doing a bit of an experiment with a competing well-known brand of transplant mix and finding that it's drying out a bit faster than the Gardener's supply mix, which, frankly surprised me. So far the plants in both groups seem to be coming along equally but time will tell. Harvest time, that is.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I USE THE TRANSPLANT MIX FOR ALL MY PLANTS AFTER STARTING THEM WITH THE GERMINATING MIX. MY FLOWERS TURN OUT BEAUTIFUL, AND I GET MANY COMPLIMENTS FROM ALL MY NEIGHBORS.
I ALSO USE IT FOR POTTING PLANTS (INDOORS AND OUTDOORS).
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I've used a lot of different soils for seedlings, and this is by far the best.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I've been using Transplant Mix in the pots and planters on my terrace for more than ten years. I've used it for all kinds of plants--from tomatoes and herbs to flowers and trees. The only downside is that you have to add LOTS of calcium in order to grow tomatoes without blossom-end rot.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
great mixture for transplants.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Used with seedling transplants. Was easy to use and good quality.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I transplant very successfully with this mix. It is the best I have ever used and my plants are very healthy. I reuse it in the garden to lighten clay soil. Nothing is thrown away.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I started seeds using a competitor's seed-starting mix, and the seedlings were small and struggling to survive. I transplanted them to this mix, and now they are thriving and will make it into the garden soon. (In the future I will be using seed-starting mix from Gardener's Supply as well as this transplanting mix!) Great product!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is the second year I've used this product. My plants have grown healthy and sturdy.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
The seedlings are much stronger and healthier with the transplant mix.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is a great transplanting mix for use between seedling stage and actual plantings into garden. I also use this mix to start my begonia and potato tubers in-house each Spring. Also, most local nurseries are not open in March when I tend to start up my tubers, and online ordering is very convenient for me.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
light weight eassy to use
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I have enjoyed starting seeds indoors for several years, and I have found the Gardeners Supply seed-starting and transplant mixes to be exceptional! Bagged soils from my local nursery simply do not compare! What I love best about the Transplant Mix is that I use any leftover mix to add in to my summer container mix - it gives it a lighter texture!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I have been growing my own perennials, annuals, and vegetables for years and depend on Gardener's Supply for their Transplant Mix as well as their Germinating Mix. Both are SUPERIOR to all others that I have tried. I have healthy seedlings and plants to set out in my garden!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I exclusively use this product for seed starting! One year I purchased a 'seed starting mix and had poor results! This mix never lets me down !!!
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
The only transplant mix I've ever used. Great for seedlings and houseplant cuttings.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Used mostly with potted plants that go in and out of the house, also to transplant new tomato plants before they go to garden.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
After I start my vegetables mainly tomatoes in my small green house using the germinating mix I then transplant the plants into bigger containers especially the tomatoes using the transplant mix. In the past two years this will be the third that I have done this my tomtoes and brocolli plants have done exceptionally well. I believe the extra time I spend doing this step has trully paid off. I compare my plants with ones in nurserys and I always have the better plants. I had sixty tomatoe plants last year and they were beautiful.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:

I used this Transplant Mix under gro-lights last year before I transferred my plants to my outdoor garden. I had the sturdiest, healthiest plants ever.I like the light weight soil, so I can add my own water. [...]
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
After starting with your germinating soil and have grown my hearty seedlings, the only obvious "next step" solution is to transplant with GS transplanting soil to continue your plants to the best they can be. They're hardier and healthier when it comes time to move to their final destination...the garden.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
We are avid gardeners and living in an area with a long winter, we start our garden (flower and vegetable) plants inside. We discovered this product last year and really liked it. Our transplants thrived in this mixture. It is so convenient.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This transplant mix helps my seedlings grow bigger and better without worrying about overwatering because it drains fast.

This is the best transplanting mix. I often use it for larger transplants too and add a little compost.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Last year I forgot to get any of this and bought some locally which was bad for my tomatoes. They got a fungus of some sort and were a problem all growing season. You can count on Gardeners to have clean disease free growing medium. Great Product.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
For several years I've use the transplant mix for my tomato, pepper and flower seedlings, and with good success. Also good for potting house plants.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Do use a mix designed for transplants when dealing with seedlings. This is a good all around mix. I blend it with regular potting soil at the transplant stage.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I start all of my seeds in the bio cell dome with the sponges. I place one seed in each sponge,then I put two more on the outside of each sponge. Once each plant is about 2 inches tall with a couple leaves I take the sponge out and gently pull the young plants off the out side of each sponge and I plant them in yogurt cups that I put three small holes in the bottom of each cup and I add the trans plant mix to each cup with the new young plant , and I will have nice healthy plants in about 4 weeks ready to plant in the garden.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This is an excellent soil-less mix for potting on seedlings and growing many indoor pot plants. I think it would be slightly better if the texture was a bit more coarse, for plants that like a more airy root environment. I add a little sand or additional perlite for these plants. This mix is better than just about any other I've found and is a good value. Oh, one last trivial thing. I'd prefer if there weren't micro ventilation holes in the bag, cause the bag leaks fine mix particles when I use it for indoor gardening. Like I said, trivial. Thanks.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
After starting my seeds in Gardener's Supply Geminating Mix, I use the transplant mix for subsequent repotting. Works well by itself or when mixed with some garden soil and compost to condition plants for the garden. My transplants are always healthy and disease-free.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This transplant mix is the perfect combination of ingrediants. I love this. I have had problems with damp off in the past, but not with this. Not once did I have a problem this year. I love this stuff!

This transplant mis is a perfect "next stage" potting soil to the germinating mix. So as my seedlings get bigger, I move them to bigger pots using this mix...they are healthy and strong and ready to go into the garden!!

What a way to ensure your plants begin their adventure, either in the garden or in a planter.
This is a great medium, it mixes well with the container mix. It is just the perfect finishing touch.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
It works very well with all our seeds.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
It's dirt, right? But it seems to do the job. I don't have much to compare it to, but my seedlings seemed happy to go to their new homes in the transplant mix.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
I use this for transplanting seedlings, and also as potting soil for all my house plants. I mix it with coarse sand for succulents. I haven't found a better potting soil.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
Whenever it is time to repot the tomatoes, or any other seedlings started in the GERMINATING mix, I always turn to the lightweight TRANSPLANTING MIX. It seems that all my plants thrive in this medium and become healthy transplants ready for permanent planting in the garden. I have also used it successfully in hanging baskets for flowers and tumbling Tom tomatoes.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
The question mark refers to the fact that I have nothing with which to compare this product. I use it because I want the best for my seedlings (read "babies"), and enjoy the whole idea of raising my vegetables and flowers from seed. Things are generally growing well in my garden so if this product played a role, I am happy with it.
Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
This soil must be compacted several times. I will mash it down as good as I can and then in a few days, I will have to mash it down again. Sometimes it takes several mashing times to get it to keep the plant snuggly in place.

Comments about Transplant Mix, 30 Qts.:
It´s ok soil, but nothing special. I´m not sure if I would by it again, because once my pre seets are big enough, I plant them outside right away or just use normal soil. One thing that´s good about it, it is really light weight soil. It´s ok
