I have been using this raised bed recharge, for several years, in both my bed and pots. I have always had great results. The boost is light and airy, which has kept the integrity of my original organic soil. I do not recommend using it on a very windy day. I planted radishes and carrots on April 7th, and the radishes started coming up, on the 13th.

I have been pleasantly surprised with this product. When added to the soil, even a smaller amount goes a long way. When using too much, as I did, doesn't hurt you. Why? Because it is made from very basic stuff and natural. In addition to the manure component it has a high percentage of easily broken down organic materials that give your garden soil a boost for the coming growing season. The plus is Vermont Organics environment goals as a company and corporate citizen makes good sense.
In the end, my soil looks great and the product is easy to work with. What else do you need but water and sunshine. Bring on Spring !!

The raised bed recharge seems good, though I did have to water it in a lot and till it so it didn’t blow away (very light and dry), and I’m pleased that it is a peat-free product. I’d love to have more information about what is in the mix and the breakdown of percent of ingredients.

The Home Depot ordering and customer service sucks, definitely a 0 (zero) - review the record history on file, you’ll see why

Not sure what is in this recharge but looks like a lot of peat. We worked it into our raised garden box and I plan to add compost. Will be interesting to see how things turn out. Soil testing would be nice but I live away from resources. This product was sent across the country to me.

Had I wanted to start a wild flower garden your product would be great! My small yard and beds are now infested with California Poppies, Johnny jump ups and whole variety of other weeds I don't want! My elbow has recently given out and weeding really hurts. You claimed your product was sterilized, well it's not. Now I'm stuck with 3 more bags of invasive wild flowers. Not the best for small raised beds I'd say!

I purchased this product as part of a 5 unique compost soil mixture for my new raised bed, Square Foot garden. I second guessed myself and began wondering if organic on the label meant the opposite of inorganic, or if it was truly organic in the sense of no pesticide, herbicide, heavy metal residues. I emailed the company to find out which "organic" definition was in use for their product, and the reply I got was quick and very informative: All Vermont Organics are pesticide, herbicide, heavy metal free and conform to organic standards. I am very happy with this product and will most likely order more next spring.

Great amendment for my raised beds. My only complaint was the shipping — three bags per box and the boxes were shredded due to the weight. Luckily the bags weren’t damaged, but that was pure luck.
