I love Miracle Gro. I think it may go the way of Shitkickers and Survivors, and now Outcasts, whose ratings have already gone down the toilet. Thing is, it could well carry on in the US on the cable channel, but for BBC 1 you actually need a lot of viewing public, more than you would on channel 4 or any of the other BBC channels. So if it does carry on, then I suspect relegation to a minor channel.

In fact, RTD leaving, and the hype about all the guest stars, plus the hype that it will carry on for years and years makes me think it's only meant as a one off. RTD just needed a foot in for his green card. Not that I would ever feel cynical about these things.
