5 Potting Soils I REGRET Buying (And 5 That I Use Now)

I've been buying potting soil for years without really knowing what I was buying. The bag looked fine, the price seemed reasonable, and that was enough. It isn't enough. After losing plants I had no business losing, I started actually reading the labels, testing what was inside, and paying attention to results. In this video I'm sharing five potting mixes I'd never buy again for houseplants, including some very well-known brands, and five that genuinely changed how my indoor plants grow. We cover why peat-heavy mixes cause problems in containers, what the wetting agent in some popular mixes actually does to your soil, and why the cheapest bags on the bottom shelf all tend to fail the same way. Then we get into the five that work, including one amendment that costs almost nothing and has probably saved more of my plants than anything else I've tried. If your plants seem to plateau, or you've had root rot you couldn't explain, the soil is very often where the answer is. #houseplants #pottingsoil #indoorplants #plantcare #gardeningtips #houseplantcare #perlite #rootrot #repotting #plantmom #gardeningwithaimee
