The Eco-Complete finally arrived, and I am very disappointed to be honest. My first shipment of Eco-Complete, I LOVED. The black soil, and no big chunks of rocks or discolored rocks.

The second shipment of Eco-Complete, clashed my first shipment ENTIRELY. Instead of a second shipment of just black soil to blend into my first shipment, the whole bag was mostly tiny pebbles or tiny rock sized. Discolored as well, and now instead of just black soil I have colors of brown, tan, orange. It's completely ugly to me..

I don't know if the discolored rocks are minerals, than that means my first bag of eco-complete lacked the minerals than?

Does anyone notice this, or is this really how Eco-Complete looks like?

You can actually see the first shipment of Eco-Complete and the second shipment is on top.

I'm still unsure why my package looked like this, but I emailed the company and is shipping a free unit free of cost.

I am glad companies will ensure their customers satisfaction :).

Anyone know anyway I can take out the pebbles, would the Eco-Complete soil sift out through a net? Going to have to dig up all the plants again.
 
you could try using a mesh sieve, and then you could pretty much dictate how large you want the soil chunks to be.
 
Well I wanted it to match my soil without the pebble sized and diffrent colors. So I guess close to the smallest mesh would weed out the bigger pebbles.
