I highly recommend mixing your own, however I use Hortibec Organic Potting Soil as my soil base for all my grows. Comes in a red accented bag and can be purchased at Walmart, Home Depot. Etc. I make additions on to that mix (see signature) and I have a self-sustaining mix that requires very little work and provides very good results. The mix is very forgiving on rookie mistakes, makes over feeding and over watering pretty hard to do

if you have enough time and patience to get the things you need to make your own mix i say do it!!!!!!
miracle grow may be cheap but the buds you get from it are light and kash fast. beleive me i know from experience.
Kushcanuck said it best make your own and you have the ability to control the amount of nutrients and thickness of your medium.
Im sure you can get fox farm ocean forrest soil in canada lol i mean you can get marijuana from a vending machine am i wrong?

For the most part, yes. About 80% of the ingredients can be found at typical big-box stores like that. The others acan usually be found at garden stores, or if your city is fortunate enough to have one, a hydroponics store will also have these products. http://www.bustan.ca is also a solid company based in Toronto that will ship throughout Canada. Happy growing
