Thanks, tl, for pointing me in the right direction. Why in the world would *I* need to read tweaks for experts. I am certainly no expert, lol. But, duh, it did tell me what I needed to know.
So if I use a 5:1 mixture of Pro Mix and perlite, I should be good to go? Or 5:2 mixture of Miracle Grow and perlite.
I think that among Home Depot, Lowes and the couple of feed and garden stores around here, I ought to find what I need. Though I've never seen the probiotic soil treatment stuff anywhere. If anyone has it , it will be the feed store. They have a more extensive gardening supply center than either Home Depot or Lowes. I hesitate to order anything from online because of shipping costs. Sheesh!
Thanks again everyone for for all your help. I haven't built anything yet. I want to make sure all my ducks are in a row before we go swimming!
Now I have to go read about fertilizers and such.
