Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down!
Not only is the Miracle Gro product bad for our environment it make the food taste like chems.At least worm poop is organic.And I have to say from exp worm castings are far more superior to Miracle Gro products.All you do is mix it in the soil and then no feeding is required.With Not SO Miracle gro you have to feed every week.Sound like Scotts is trying to rip people off with Stuff that is bad for our environment.
Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down!
Scotts became a household name over a period of more than 100 years and didn't need to emulate any other company to become the best in the business. Terracycle may be small, but that doesn't excuse them from making unethical or ignorant packaging decisions. Worm poop will never hold a candle to any Miracle Gro product-it shouldn't look like one.
Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down!

Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down!
