What kind of soil??? Please help!

I'm just about to start my first grow. The only soil I could find with out nutrients/ fertilizer in it was Earthgro potting soil. It's organic and looks good. I'm going to be using the fox farm nutrient trio pack. And 2 100w CFCs on each plant. How do you think this will work out? Any advice would be great. Thank you. :leaf:

Earthgro is Ok, if you want to pick up something innexpensive go with Miracle Grow African Violet (already ph'ed for ya) or Miracle Grow Moisture Control, I have had great results with both. Everyone rants and raves about the latest and greatest soil, but the sad fact is that I have rode those ban wagons and overall have had better results with MG products at a fraction of the cost.

Buy a 3 cubic foot bag of peat moss (Home Depot) and a 4 cubic foot bag of penlite (Agway) - 50 gallons of dirt for $30.
