Compost vs Potting Soil: What’s the Difference?

Many gardeners use these terms interchangeably—but they’re not the same.

🪴 Potting Soil

- Often sterile
- May contain peat, perlite, and bark
- Lacks microbial life unless amended

🌿 Compost

- Made from decomposed organic matter
- Full of microbial life
- Improves both texture and nutrition
