The garden soil looked very rich and said it feeds for three months, but I know it needs a little perlite or vermiculite added and fortunately I've had some perlite sitting in my closet for a couple of years that I'm able to use now.

Will see how it all works out. I do have the 15-30-15 to use a little later. I added some in the bottom third of the 5-gallon buckets so when the roots reach that far it'll help, plus I'll add some to the top few inches of soil once they are ready to flower.
Soooo its still not clear to me if your bags says MIX or SOIL? They don't sell a "potting soil" product do they? Garden soil is denser. For container gardening you want MIX as it is soil-less and is a peat-based product.
