Sterile. Soilless. Dry.

I got a text from a family member asking if i needed anything from a big box store.
"bag of starting mix"

It was heavy and wet so i knew it was old stock. Left it outside in the snow decided to
just use it later for top dressing outdoor plants. Someone brought it in and i did not
notice. (may have been my fungus gnat/aphid trouble?)

When i found it i took it out on the deck in Feb. and it was full of mold and sprouting
seeds.... (sprouting seeds?!)

Gave it a kettle hot water bath and tossed it in some outdoor containers.
