FoxFarm Strawberry Fields® Fruiting & Flowering Potting Soil, 1.5 cu ft is a nutrient-rich container growing medium developed for established flowering and fruiting plants. Its blend of aged forest products, sphagnum peat moss, perlite, earthworm castings, bat guano, dolomitic lime and oyster shell supports aeration, moisture management and productive plant development.
This ready-to-use FoxFarm potting soil is ideal for growers transplanting mature plants into nursery pots, decorative containers, fabric pots or raised planters. The generous 1.5 cubic foot bag provides 38.5 dry quarts or 42.4 litres of growing medium.
Key Features & Grower Benefits
- Formulated for reproductive growth: Designed for established plants entering their flowering and fruiting stages, including berries, tomatoes and ornamental blooms.
- Rich organic inputs: Earthworm castings and bat guano contribute natural organic matter to the root zone for vigorous container growth.
- Balanced physical structure: Sphagnum peat moss and aged forest products retain moisture, while perlite promotes drainage and root-zone aeration.
- Ready for containers: The prepared blend eliminates the measuring and mixing required with separate peat, aeration and amendment products.
- Large-format supply: The 1.5 cu ft bag is practical for filling multiple pots or transplanting larger fruiting and flowering specimens.
Recommended Applications
Use Strawberry Fields® as a container medium for established tomatoes, strawberries, peppers, flowering annuals, perennials, vines and other fruit-bearing crops. It is well suited to indoor grow tents, controlled-environment rooms, patios, balconies, greenhouse benches and container gardens.
The blend can also support greenhouse trellising and canopy-training programs in which mature crops are grown in pots or fabric containers. It is intended as a potting soil rather than an inert medium for recirculating deep-water culture or other bare-root hydroponic systems. For best results, transplant established plants and adjust irrigation frequency to container size, crop demand and environmental conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this potting soil suitable for seeds or young seedlings?
A: Strawberry Fields® is formulated primarily for established fruiting and flowering plants. Start sensitive seeds and seedlings in a lighter propagation mix, then transplant after they have developed a healthy root system.
Q: Can the potting soil be reused after one crop?
A: Fresh medium is recommended for predictable structure and plant health. Used soil may contain depleted nutrients, compacted material, roots or pathogens; if reused, remove old roots, inspect it carefully and refresh it appropriately before planting.
