Q4: Why have the granules in an open bag of feed gone mushy?
A4: Miracle-Gro is based on soluble salts, which are hygroscopic and must be stored in a well-sealed container in a dry location. If the container is not properly sealed then moisture can be absorbed from the atmosphere resulting in the product becoming sticky. However, this does not affect the quality of the product, although it may make it slightly more difficult to measure. Damp product can be used as recommended without risk to plants to which it is applied.
