The right stuff container mix ingredients?

Oops, well it is in there now,as I followed the global, bucket video.

I think next year I will have to go back to square one and decide a mix much sooner. The trouble is, there is so much info on this site it truly boggles the mind and everyone has a slightly different preference it is hard to know where to begin.

Some of the fertilisers you all mention I can't get in Canada, nor the fines etc, so am winging it a bit.

I used to make my own mixes for containers in the UK but of course that stuff is not here either.

I am curious to know if the fertiliser band I put in the global buckets was right too. In our community garden it is strictly organic so my choices had to made with that in mind. I bought Gaia Green all purpose 4-4-4.

Do I need to add anything else later?
