If you wanted all the soil in one place, you probably wouldn't need to break it up prior to wetting. Once however much (the aforementioned chunk, in my case) is wetted, it expands rapidly and is super easy to break up. It has a nice fluffy consistency - no big chunks of things like some of the potting mixes I've used.
Wonder Soil seems to make several different products with slightly different ingredients. Since ingredients on the Home Depot website Wonder Soil listing weren't complete, I'm attaching a pdf scan of the label from what I got today. Sorry it's a little hard to read, but I think you can make things o
No bat guano, but it does have a number of other good ingredients I had suspected but wasn't sure of - including mycorrhizae, humus and compost, as well as the worm castings, etc. mentioned on the HD website.
I hope to be transplanting into the Wonder Soil tomorrow - and look forward to hearing what Kurt thinks of it.

My order just left from Las Vegas today(of all places)Weird that thier headquarters is in Adventura Fl. right up the road from me.Will show in time for my third germination of maters,lettuces,arugalas,quinoas,select basils,and some herbs.I am also looking for a cleaner medium without the chunks(mini trees!) and something you can water without sinking the seeds too deep or floating them up(i.e. basils,poppys,the finer smaller seeds)Will keep you posted.
