Jimbo, my son is doing an experiment using different mixes to grow carrots in 5 gallon buckets. There is a brand of cheap mix sold at Walmart called Earthgro - it cost under $2 a bag and has a fair amount of sand in it. What my son showed me is that the mix of the Earthgro and MG produced much longer carrots than the ones planted in MG alone.

I'll look tomorrow when I'm out in the barn to see exactly which one he bought - and let you know.
