I too buy container mix and I have about forty large cedar pots and nineteen earthboxes.
I mainly use "Jungle Growth" in my cedar pots and earthboxes or EBS as we call them. I have also used Miracle-Gro, Sta-Green, etc. As long as they are a quality mix and the label or back of the bag does not have the words "soil" or "not for containers" as the organic mix does manufactured by Miracle-Gro, I have been more than happy. Down here the cost for a 2 cu ft bag is about $7.00 or so, so it does get expensive if you are on a tight budget but I am partially disabled so not much choice.
