Q: is this pet safe? my little dog licked some up after i added it to a outdoor plant.
submitted by arianna - 11 months ago
A: Hi Arianna! While our plant foods are 100% plant and mineral based and safe for use around pets, if it's been ingested, we do recommend calling your veterinarian. We hope your dog is okay!

Can't speak for how good it is for the plants. They're not dead. But the smell is awful. Like a sewage pipe burst. Not a good choice for indoor plants.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I added the fertilizer per the instructions and after a few days it looked like mold was growing in every plant I added it to. I’m not sure if this is normal but I didn’t like this.
Pretty good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free sample of Back to the Roots All-Purpose Plant Food from @influenster. I used this soil to start some flowers I want to put outside this summer. My plants are growing beautifully! The soil is rich, holds water, and is easy to plant in. I will be using this brand of soil again.
Don't buy!

Doesn't break down, causes mold as other reviews have noted. Luckily i bought it on clearance but now i have bags of stuff i cant use
1 reply from Back to the Roots, Inc. team - 2 months ago
Hi Bodhi! Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Mold is not typical with our Organic All-Purpose Plant Food. However, in shaded areas, the mycorrhizae in the formula can sometimes lead to mycelial growth on the soil’s surface. This is a natural occurrence and can be gently fluffed to disperse it. However, if the soil remains in a low-light environment, the mycelial growth may reappear. Please send a photo to contact@backtotheroots.com, we'd love to take a look and help you grow with us!
Works well, no scent, resealable packaging

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this out on my lime tree in place of its usual monthly fertilizer and it seemed to work great! Love the resealable packaging as well to keep critters out when stored in the garage. Didn’t notice any strong scent either.
Great for my indoor plants!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, I love that this is organic so I feel comfortable using it in my garden to grow food. And it really works! It makes the plants flourish and flowers grow so gorgeous in under a week. It's also pretty cheap. I used it in my flower bed as well and all my plants flourished! Highly recommend!
Plant food!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love all my plants and I was really curious about what food or fertilizer I should get for them. Then I had the chance to try this and so far it has everything looking great. Some of my plants were struggling from a long cold winter and even those have been spruced back up. Very happy with the results thus far.

Kayli - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
Would not recommend. This left mold on multiple of my plants, and it stinks to high heaven. The first time it happened i thought it was a fluke, but t happened two more times. The directions even say that it can be sprinkled evenly on top of the dirt, so I don’t really understand why there is so much mold. Very upsetting and I feel so bad for my poor plants. I put it at the bottom of some pots when I was reporting some of my plants, and I really hope there isn’t mold there too.

Hi Kayli! We are sorry to hear you're having trouble with our plant food. You want to sprinkle it evenly on top of the soil, gently mix it in the soil, and water as normal. Our plant food has a high concentration of root-boosting mycorrhizae so you might be seeing mycelium not mold. Please send a photo to contact@backtotheroots.com, we would love to help you grow with our plant food.
Don't do this dirt!

It smelled like trash. Almost immediately had mold. I moved it outside because of the smell and it was immediately infested because of the stench.

Hi Crucialtaunt! We are sorry you have had this experience. Mold is not common with our Organic All-Purpose Plant Food. Please send a photo to contact@backtotheroots.com. We would love to help with a replacement or refund as needed.

The product gets moldy after a day or two. Not worth the hassle to clear the mold.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since I started giving my plants Back to the Roots, they have been happy and thriving. I like that it's organic and natural. I appreciate that I can have it around my house without having to worry about my kids or pets getting into it. I've noticed a difference, and I appreciate it. I recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s almost time to start making plans for planting our garden! We have started planting from seeds and so far so good! I did use the all purpose plant food and so far my little baby seedlings are doing great! So I can say that the plant food is helping and I would recommend using it!
