"Royal Gold Planting Mix has out performed some of the top of the line mixes from other manufacturers!"
"At Head-Lee Nursery, we regularly test our soils to monitor performance in our growing conditions. In a recent trial, with a total of 12 different commercial soils, Royal Gold Potting Soil was the top performer!
We used Lantana and the plant had better branching, more bud set, and held ideal leaf color longer than the other soil mixes. In addition, Royal Gold Planting Mix has out performed some of the top of the line mixes from other manufacturers!"
"For the 2025 growing season we exclusively used Royal Gold Planting mix as our growing medium in all phases of nursery production."
"It was used from starting seeds all the way up to large 10 gallon planters used to create hanging baskets on Central Ave. in McKinleyville and Henderson Center in Eureka. The substrate holds its properties of good aeration and water holding capacity without breaking down over a long growing season. Fertility is easily managed using slow release fertilizers, both organic and salt based. It also works well with any liquid feed system. It has been a cost effective potting media for our commercial operation."
Royal Gold began nearly twenty years ago in the hills of Humboldt County, California where experimentation and craftsmanship meet a deep love of the land. Today, our small family operation has grown into a trusted name for gardeners and retailers across the country, including our expansion into Upstate South Carolina. We are still mixing, testing, and packaging in small batches to ensure the same consistency and care we were founded on.
