Can't speak for the potting soil, but I have used the Baccto Peat mix the last two years with great results. It is more like a mix of peat and loam to me, very finely graded, no chunks or bark. I kind of feel it lacks nutrients though, so this year I am using their "veggie mix" for the bottom 2/3 and topping with the finer graded Peat mix.

That might be why it struck my brain when searching potting soil. I think I looked for it last yr. when I had the mold issues.
I went looking for it today nowhere to be found so I decided on
Black Gold from my local doitbest.
Doitbest online carries the Battco But would not ship to store for some reason.
I got to the store and Don the owner greeted me, You can't get in this store without someone asking to help you out even if they know you know the store better than them.
I told him my about the ship to store thing with the Battco soil and he went and checked it out and came back saying it was because the local werehouse dident stock it.
BUT has another connection and could check it for me if I had A coupe of minutes. Check it out I told him.
He comes back with papers in his hand and presents them to me in color also, of the Battco soil product I was after.
On one page was a 25 pounder for like 6.25 bucks and the other page was a 50 pounder was like 7.89 bucks.
Now that is Dirt Cheap, ordered two 50 pounders. I will get them Friday.
I won't ask for my 20% store discount on this one.
I grabbed a bag of Black Gold all purpose to compare to also.
Really, I would have felt guilty walking out the store empty handed after Don hooked me up.
Service like this is one thing you don't get anymore unless there name is Don.
