I'm just cleaning up from this winters grow and I am looking at all this used soil from 60 3 gal pots. I live in a house and do outdoor growing (tomatoes), so I am going to mix it in my garden soil. I am curious as to what other people do with their used soil, coco, etc. I could see how this could be a problem for a lot of people. What do you do?

I grow in fabric pots, I typically end up with a giant root mass and very little loose soil...so it all goes to nature (the ground).

I have heard that you can recondition it and reuse it. Foxfarm sells a soil reconditioner pre mixed.

Don't throw out soil just mix lot of worm castings and compost and water it with a compost tea and enzyme tea. There's the no till method which works very well.
