How's this for a soil mix?

2 c. ft. Potting Soil
1 c. ft. Perlite
8 qt. Vermiculite
1 cup Blood Meal
.5 cup Bone Meal
1 cup Dolomite Lime
.5 cup Epsom Salt

Am I missing anything? Is that enough Blood & Bone Meal?

I'd do a runoff pH test batch with the water you'll use before adding the lime. I'm an outdoor grower and like my pH no higher than 6.8, preferably around 6.5-6.6.

I added 1 c.ft peat moss, 1c.ft soil, 8 oz. more perlite. I'll take a sample in to the local ag office to get it analyzed. I'll update when I get the report.
