Extending super soil

I'm looking for the best way to extend some Subcool soil I made a few months ago. I had made about 50 gallons, but have since used some for tomatoes and peppers. Now I need more for my weed!

I've got 2 cu. ft organic compost, 3 cu ft Turbo sphagnum peat moss, 3 cu. ft "Bumper crop organic soil conditioner", 1 cu ft steer manure, and 1 bag pumice.

What should I mix with the already-made 40 gallons supersoil to get up to 50 gallons?

I hate to be captain obvious by maybe just make more using the same recipe ?

But that recipe calls for a ton of amendments that I don't have on hand

How much pumice is in the bag? And by Bumper Crop are you using this product? https://coastofmaine.com/product/bumpercrop/

He needs more media not to recharge soil I believe.

Personally I would do 2.5 gallons of the organic compost, 2.5 gallon peat moss, 2.5 gallon of pumice, and 2.5 gallon of the soil conditioner(keep in mind I do not know the consistency of this product, if it feels like a light fluffy aerated producted you should be okay, if its thick like compost you may run into drainage issues.)of what you got if your plant is asking for more food. Keep in mind you may run into possible issues when using unproven recipes but I don't see it being an issue if your soil feels fluffy and has a good balance of organic matter(compost), aeration(pumice) and water/nutrient holding capabilities(peat moss).

You can use any dry or perilled garden fertilizer like tomato tone 4-4-4 or spikes found at the garden centre.

I'm using some of this in 2021 for a handful of back yarders. Gonna add some perlite to it and mix it with compost and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend.
