    The product, in the report: Miracle-Gro® Performance Organics® All Purpose In-Ground Soil. It is adverised as being organic soil you can put in your garden bed. It is NOT organic.

    Miracle-Gro® Performance Organics® All Purpose In-Ground Soil. I purchased this produc a few weeks ago. I put it in a newly built planter. It is listed as organic. I have found bits of metal and plastic in this soil. The metal looks like it could be transistors from a circuit board which leads me to believe that this soil could be contaminated with heavy metals. Every time it rains a bunch of this stuff comes up in the planter. I am sick since I will have to empty this planter and start over. I don’t know if I will be able to find new plants at this point. I looked on line at miracle grows web site which has MANY reviews like mine. This stuff needs to be recalled. It is not organic like the label states. I have a picture of the bits if you would like to see it. This also looks like it has been on going for a while from the number of bad reviews on the miracle grow web site.
