    It's pretty good is all I can say. Doesn't compact as much as the other potting mixes I bought in the past. Been buying it for over two years now. They have since reduced the volume. Used to be 25 or 27L, now it's just 22.

    I like ALDI's but Woolies give me 25 L for $3 (when on sale)
    (altho I'm waiting got ALDI to open near me)
    Not a Deal, IMO.

      Is the Woolies stuff red tick? Haven't seen many red tick premium mixes at this price before, so I'm giving it a +.

    How do you evaluate dirt for quality?

      See how your plants grow in it
      And, maybe, whether others do?

    "Good" depends on what you're putting in pots. Specialist mixes are best but expensive. Some natives don't like particular fertilizers, some plants like loose coarse free-draining mixes, many plants appreciate the addition of water crystals or wetting agent, trace elements included in some premium mixes are a bonus. This mix is better than the average stuff and is, cough, dirt cheap.

  Of course they do… I just stocked up on Amgrow red tick mix from Stratco @ $8.99 for 36L. Used to use Osmocote Premium Plus expensive shit from Bunnings, but had a bad run of plant deaths with the last few bags I've used.

    In pots? Yes. Regular feeds of liquid fertiliser and/or liquid seaweed will help veges in pots. Follow instructions.
