Horrible potting soil

I bought this potting soil a month ago. When I started to pot small basil plants, I found huge hunks of bark and big sticks throughout it. Removed them and used 4 pots. After 3 weeks, my biggest healthiest plants withered and died.

Replaced them and when I started to consider planting them in the two cleaned pots I had, I found the remainder of the soil was covered in white, fuzzy mold. Now I know why my healthiest plants died!

Went out today and bought decent potting soil and threw the moldy nonsense away.

Now, this cheaper than average potting soil has cost me the price of two new plants, the gas to go buy more soil and triple the cost in new soil.

Just a warning for my fellow shoppers, don't buy this garbage potting soil!
