The seller's answer is correct.  1 cubic foot = 25.7 dry quarts.  Dry quarts are somewhat larger than liquid quarts, as they are a fraction of a bushel, rather than a fraction of a barrel.  The bag weighs 23.7 lbs, according to the product information in the listing.

Accepted Answer

I have always used it by itself except for the soil/dirt that is in the pot/around the root ball of the plant (s), it is a mixture of soil and other ingredients, like bark, peat moss, phosphates, nitrogen, potash etc, so it can be used as is.

Question 4

what are the ingredients in miracle gro  potting mix 1 cubic foot?

Accepted Answer

From their website "Our potting soils generally contain peat moss (the major component that is harvested from natural peat bogs), compost (the compost may contain animal manures, composted leaves, grass clippings, and/or composted bark), and perlite (white volcanic rocks used for drainage and soil texture). Some contain Osmocote fertilizer that look like small clear fluid-filled balls.The Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix also contains composted hulls of coconuts to help absord more water than regular potting soil. This is the Aqua Coir (pronounced "core") component of the soil."
