Are Black Gold Organic Soils Suitable for Midwest Gardening?

“Is Black Gold Natural & Organic Potting Soil suitable for Midwest growing? If not, can you recommend one that is suitable? Preferably organic.” Question from Kathleen of Illinois.

Answer: All of our OMRI Listed potting mixes for organic gardening are perfect for growing anywhere, Midwest included. I can vouch for it because I’ve gardened with Black Gold in various places across the country. For container gardening, I recommend Black Gold Natural & Organic Potting Mix or Black Gold Waterhold Cocoblend Potting Mix. Both yield great growing results, indoors or out.
