The finest soil mixture money can buy...what is it?

It's Our own organic blend of the perfect potting soil for ANY plant, indoors or out. Made of real South Texas virgin sandy loam soil. 

The moment you realize that this soil is what your plant root's crave will be when you run your fingers through it. Firm but fluffy. Compressible but resilient. The weight of this soil will let you know that it means business. 

This soil has top-of-the-line drainage, aeration, water retention, porosity, and weight that is for the discerning gardener that wants a natural option.

The perfect ingredients to make the perfect mix. We call this soil because it is made of REAL SAND LOAM as its base.   No fake potting mixes made of sawdust.
  • sandy loam virgin soil from South Texas
  • organic coconut fiber
  • organic coconut coir
  • organic rice hulls 
  • biochar
  • volcanic ash for mineralization
  • organic sulfur for optimal pH control
  • Crab, Kelp, and Amino acids for biostimulants
  • innoculated with live microbes from Plant Super Boost

Steam Sterilized: A labor intensive, expensive and time consuming process. But it is completely organic and cleanses our soil of any possible bugs like: nematodes, protozoa, bad bacteria/fungi or viruses! All ingredients are sterilized with steam. 

Environmentally Superior: Our other products: rice hulls and coco are utilized as an environmentally friendly alternative to perlite and peat moss. Both are re-purposed secondary materials after agricultural production. We have enjoyed the benefits of ricehulls, which act as a top dressing for the plant. And coconut coir is renewable, unlike peat moss. Plus, we utilize a specific ratio of different sizes of the materials to create our unique fluffy but dense finger feel.

Fortified: To have living soil, you must have living microbials. We have the only batch of live microbials in the world, in Dr. Mani's Magic Mix. And we have fortified this soil with the microbes, including mycorrhzea, bacteria, fungi, nematodes, and protozoa. 

Magic Valley: The reason the Rio Grande Valley was marketed as the "Magic Valley" for decades was its incredible sandy loam soil. Fine soil with an ideal mix of moisture drainage and retention, this soil is the backbone of the agricultural industry in South Texas.

Our Own Land: All of the sandy loam we use is directly from our own land. A parcel of virgin soil, we have mapping surveys that lead us to the areas of perfect, run-through-your-fingers sandy loam soil, each batch tested and sterilized by us. No heaps of construction material imported in from a 3rd party. 

Greenhouse Tested: We have tested this on hundreds of thousands of plants of all varieties in our own greenhouse and many, many happy customers!

The Alternatives: The vast majority of potting mix or landscaper's mix is an abomination made primarily from pine tree sawdust and bark chunks. The mixes 'made for citrus' have a tiny amount of sand, peat, and fertilizer. Peat moss is a good material but it is usually dusted coir that is so small it will decompose rapidly and steal oxygen from plant roots.

Why is pine used for potting mix? Because it is a waste product from our forestry industry and they have plenty of it and it is very light and cheap. Pine has some of the highest toxins and chemicals, and has its own chemical industry. These chemicals, in the potting mixes unfortunately are terrible for plant root growth. Also, the small wood particles decompose very quickly, this takes up all the oxygen and some nutrients from the mix and the plant roots.

Contrary to popular opinion, organic media is not beneficial to plants in mix. It is good on TOP of the soil for slow nutrient release. Decomposing organic matter and sawdust make for a toxic environment for plant roots after about 3-6 months in a container, unless the roots are able to grow and get rootbound prior. 

Why we are different: This is a MINERAL based potting soil. Sandy loam is mineral, not organic material. Rice hulls are silica based, and they don't decompose. Coco chip and fiber are organic but they decompose much slower than peat moss or potting mix because of their size and they do not release toxic chemicals like pine. Biochar is excellent for nutrient retention and transporting and housing microbes. All of the products in our soil are beneficial for aeration. It retains water well, but also drains appropriately. The roots will plenty of oxygen.

Warning: This product is DENSE. Also do not use this for starting seeds as microbes consume seeds and this is fortified with live microbials.

A remarkable story
Format: Hardcover
What a wonderful surprise this was! I thought Remarkably Bright Creatures was a story about a woman and an octopus, but it turned out to be so much more than that. This is Shelby Van Pelt’s first book, and I don’t think a debut has affected me like this since I read Hollow Kingdom, another story that unfolds through the eyes of an animal. The story has a bit of magical realism to it, in the sense that parts of it are told from the octopus’s point of view, but otherwise it’s simply a delightful tale about family and connections that had me ugly crying by the end of the book. In the first chapter we meet Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus on display in the Sowell Bay Aquarium near Puget Sound. Marcellus has been in captivity for 1,299 days, and based on his life expectancy of about four years, he believes he only has a handful of days left to live. His dreary days in a small glass enclosure are broken up by secret nighttime excursions, as Marcellus is extremely smart and has found a way out of his tank. Tova Sullivan is a seventy-year-old woman who has been working nights at the aquarium as a cleaning lady for the past two years. Tova knows how to remove the hundreds of fingerprints on the tank walls and can polish the floors to a brilliant shine. She’s also quite fond of the sea creatures she encounters each night, especially Marcellus, and the two have formed an unusual bond since Tova saved Marcellus one night after he escaped and became entangled in a bunch of electrical cords. Next, we meet Cameron Cassmore, a thirty-year-old man who is drifting through life with no real purpose. Cameron lives in California, and one day his aunt gives him a box of his estranged mother’s things. Inside the box he finds a photo and an old class ring, clues that could lead to the identity of his father, a man he never knew. Cameron hops on a plane to Washington state, convinced the man he thinks is his father—a rich real estate tycoon—will be so distraught over abandoning his son, he’ll shower Cam with money. At least that’s the plan. Finally, Ethan Mack is the owner of Sowell Bay’s Shop-Way, the local grocery store. Ethan has known Tova for years and secretly has a crush on her, but Tova is much too distant to notice his interest. When Cameron shows up at the Shop-Way looking for a job, Ethan directs him to his friend who manages the aquarium, which is how Cameron and Tova meet. Tying all these characters together is Marcellus, a remarkably bright octopus with a penchant for stealing and hoarding the treasures he finds after hours on the aquarium floor, and who just might be able to bring two people together who need each other—but don’t yet realize it. Van Pelt’s chapters alternate among all these characters and introduce a slew of side characters as well, each one vitally important to the story. At first, we don’t realize how each character is connected to the next, but slowly the author reveals her secrets until the stunned reader begins to understand the depth of these connections. Each character is given a detailed backstory that becomes very important to the plot. Tova’s story in particular was heart wrenching, as she has experienced quite a bit of loss in her life and finds herself mostly alone in her twilight years. Luckily she belongs to a group of women who call themselves the Knit-Wits, and the four of them meet weekly to eat, drink, gossip and support each other. Tova came to America from Sweden as a little girl, so the story is filled with details about growing up with her Swedish mother and father. Even the Dala horses her mother collected play a part in the story, and I found these little details added so much richness. At first I couldn’t figure out how Cameron fit it, but once he arrives in Sowell Bay and meets Ethan and Tova, his story takes on new meaning. Cameron meets a woman named Avery who also plays a vital part in filling in some of the missing pieces about Cameron’s father, and I loved the way the author gave even the most insignificant side characters meaning and purpose. Van Pelt infuses her story with so many emotional moments and themes. We see how the Knit-Wits are going through the aging process, as their numbers have dwindled over the last few years. Tova is facing being alone in her old age, with no children or husband to take care of her, and so she makes the rash decision to sell her beloved house and move into a retirement community. I don’t want to give too many details about Tova’s past and her losses, because I think it’s better to discover those revelations for yourself. Let’s just say that I felt Tova’s pain and wanted nothing more than for her to be happy. And Van Pelt includes so many funny moments in her story that kept the tone light, despite some of the more heavy themes. There’s an ongoing bit about Cameron’s lost luggage that was hysterically funny, and Tova inherits a stray cat at one point, which was a delightful side plot. I also loved the story about the t-shirt that Tova uses to clean Ethan’s kitchen—you’ll just have to read the book so you can experience the hilarity too! And of course, I can’t forget the star of the story, Marcellus the octopus. As the days tick by—each of his chapters starts with a marker (“Day 1,299 of my captivity”, etc)---the tension builds as Marcellus gets closer to his impending death (at least that’s what he thinks). Marcellus understands human nature more than most humans, and I loved the way he wisely intuits each character’s needs. Ultimately, this is a story about creatures—both human and animal—saving each other. The way Marcellus’s story plays out was absolutely perfect—heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. This is a very special book, and I’m so glad I was able to finally read it. Highly recommended!

It was as good as I'd hoped.
Format: Kindle
Marcellus McSquiddles, the giant Pacific Octopus who has lived at the Sowell Bay Aquarium for going on four years, is often exasperated with the humans who stare at him all day. But there is one human who is different. She speaks to him and more importantly, she keeps his nocturnal escapes from his tank, a secret. Tova is a gentle woman, a widower and still dealing with the loss of her son, more than thirty years ago. When someone new strolls into town, Cameron Cassmore, looking for his dead beat father, he and Tova's lives will become inextricably linked, if they're not already. And Marcellus sees all of this and does his best to assist, where he can, since for the most part, he notices that haumans can be rather dull. But though, sometimes, especially in the case of Tova, there a a few who are remarkably bright. This was a sweet, genuine, heartfelt and beautifully written, fun read. Van Pelt has created a delightfully jaded and long-suffering, sighing character in the form of Marcellus and he and Tova's story is told in such a unique and imaginative way. I'd been meaning to read this for so long and I'm so glad I finally did.

Remarkable book
Format: Kindle
A truly moving story. I thought going it it might be a little too sugary sweet for me, but turned out to just have the right amount of of sweetness. Marcellus is truly remarkable, although he is a bit of a spoiler, revealing the bug twist way too early, which leaves to frustration while you wait for the rest of the cast to catch up. There were a couple of cliches and the ending felt a little rushed, but still it was an enjoyable read.

Remarkably Bright Creatures
Format: Hardcover
emarkably Bright Creatures is one of those rare novels that effortlessly sneaks into your heart and makes itself at home. It centers on Tova Sullivan, a seventy‑year‑old widow quietly trying to fill the empty spaces left by loss, and Marcellus, a brilliantly observant giant Pacific octopus at the Sowell Bay Aquarium whose voice is as wise as it is wry. Their unlikely friendship is at once funny, tender, and deeply affecting, gently guiding the story through themes of grief, hope, aging, and connection. The book also weaves in Cameron, a young man adrift in life, and slowly threads all three characters’ paths together into a quietly powerful emotional journey. What I loved most was how the narrative balances genuine humour and surprising warmth with profound reflections on family, forgiveness, and new beginnings — all without ever feeling forced or overly sentimental. Shelby Van Pelt’s debut is beautifully written, full of subtle moments that stick with you long after the final page. Whether it’s Marcellus’s clever asides, Tova’s resilient heart, or the way the story reminds you that healing can come from the most unexpected places, this book is a joy to read. Rating: ★★★★★ — a truly special read I’ll remember for a long time.

Tucker and His Southern Drawl Made Me Swoon!
Format: Kindle
I LOVE sports romances and last year I came across the Off-Campus series by Elle Kennedy. I devoured The Deal, the first book in the series, and eagerly got my paws on the next books in the series as soon as I could! These books are typically classified in the New Adult and College or sports romance genres because most of the main characters are college students and several of them are usually athletes. I love Elle Kennedy's writing style in these books because she makes most of her characters likable and funny, not to mention relatable. That being said, when I saw that The Goal was being released this fall, I pre-ordered it way back in the summer and couldn't wait to dive back into the world of the Briar University athletes and their girls! "'So money doesn't matter once you get down to it. It doesn't matter how thin or thick anyone's wallet is. We all hurt. We all love. We're the same. And your past, who you live with, where you came from, it doesn't have to matter. You're creating your own future, and I want to see where the road forward takes you.'" Sabrina James is pre-law at Briar University who works two jobs to make ends meet and is planning on applying to Harvard Law School. She's had a bit of a crazy life, with both of her parents leaving her at a young age so she was raised by her grandmother. As a result, she has a hard time loving people and keeps her guard up with most people she meets. She has a couple of close friends but never makes time for a boyfriend, both because of her dreams of becoming a lawyer and she doesn't want to be disappointed if someone doesn't love her back. "'You might want to get a sandwich. I'm gonna keep you in bed for a long time.'" Sabrina is at a bar with her friends one night when she meets John Tucker, a hockey player at Briar. He's from Texas and after graduation, he plans to move back to the Lone Star State to be close to his mom and invest in a business down there. Since he was born and raised in the South, he's got the southern drawl that makes all of the girls go crazy (every time he said "darlin,'" I think my heart skipped a few beats!). He and Sabrina are attracted to each other but they agree to get together for just one night and that's it. However, Sabrina's intelligence and beauty keep Tucker wanting more while, as much as she won't admit it, Sabrina is attracted to the way Tucker genuinely cares for her and wants to be around her. "My goal, once upon a time, was to succeed. I didn't realize that success wasn't grades or scholarships or achievements, but the people I was lucky enough to have in my life." When I started reading The Goal, it felt a lot like the other books in the Off-Campus series. They take place at Briar University, full of good-hearted hockey players and their girlfriends, and are written in a fast-paced manner because of the hilarious dialogue between the characters. About halfway into the book, there is a dramatic turn of events which cause (I believe) a shift in the typical feel of these books. No longer was the book about college athletes and their comical antics, it was about college students who have to make real-life choices that greatly affect themselves and others. I think The Goal starts out as a typical NA book but finishes with more of a mature feel to it, given the circumstances Sabrina and Tucker now have, though there are still elements of the NA genre in the second half of the book. There were times when I wanted to shout at Sabrina and tell her to stop being so stubborn but that's just her character and in the end, she realizes what she really wants. "Because love is the ultimate goal. It's not the one I had strived for, but I was lucky enough, so d**n lucky, to achieve it." In summary, I loved The Goal and it made my heart happy to see how the development of the characters unfolds and what they choose to do in their lives. Those familiar with the other Off-Campus books and who are looking to read The Goal may just want a bit of advanced warning that this book isn't exactly written in the same style. The first half is similar to the other books but the second half is a bit more serious and mature as the characters deal with some serious life events. Personally, I loved it but I also love books about love and family so The Goal satisfied my desires to read about college life, sports, as well as family. This book can be read as a standalone but I feel you will get more out of it if you read the other books first. I was also bummed to see that this is the last book in the series BUT there will be a spinoff for anyone, like me, who is eager for more! I loved The Goal and recommend reading it, especially if you have read and enjoyed the other books; just know that the second half has a different feel, even though I think it ends on a good note and the series is wrapped up nicely.
