    I have a question about dirt, soil, potting mix ect. I do most of my flower planting in pots-some are small and most are huge-what do I do with last years soil? Some say reuse it some say put half of it in the bottom so not to waste some say throw it out! What do you say? I use miracle gro 3 month fertilizer in my pots/window boxes.
    Second Question-I planted some seeds indoors and got carried away with watering and some soil molded, what do I do with that soil? Get rid of the mold and reuse the dirt? I really hate to waste any potting soil but what good is it if it will harm my flower seeds.
