Scotts premium top soil

Low's card with credit on it,can't get cash back off it,only use at low's, so what's the best of the worst soils and mixes I can buy at low's to mix up starter soil for seedlings, without buying miracle gro?
I bought a few bags of this crap, mixed reviews on both, the scotts ang hapi gro, plus I have 20 gallons of old poting soil all diffrent brands even miracle gro that's between 2 and 6 years old that I pulled out old pots, some had nothing but grass growing in them others had old dead house plants, and I got 50 gallons of top soil out of a fammers 1000 are more acer field that floods about every 10 years and was a swamp bottom about 100 years ago, they spray it with planes,everything around that field, weeds, grass, bushes thousands of diffrent plants are 5 times bigger than normal, regular yard grass is 8 foot tall and would have to cut with a chain saw, don't think a bushog would cut it, My friend planted some plants beside this field a fews ago and they took off like they were some kind of steroids and this was local mexican and no telling what else shitt weed, what he harrvest couldn't been the same shitt, it was sweet real piney, half joint fried both of us, ever since then I've been wanting to get some, so I did. Now the soil looks like shitt, its red and gray, I'm going to buy a more precisest soil kit and find out what's in it, before I start mixing it with my other soil.

Just got back from lowes site, don't see pro mix, I knew about the dolomite and perlite, can't believe they want $5 for small bag of styrofoam, I don't see pro mix in the soil section.

Oh and that bag of "styrofoam" is a must. It makes the soil "lighter" amongst other things. A big bag, I think 4cf, can be had for 10-15 bucks at a feed and ranch store. I know that don't go with the lowes thing but well worth it if you plan to keep doing this. You need it in soil or soilless.
 
Try peat moss and sphagnum peat moss that's basically what's in pro mix. Or see if they have sunshine mix.
I whish they had sunshine mix, thanks ill try peat moss,
If you use something like this you will have to feed them. Soilless does not supply any nutrients.
Just thought I should mention that since you did ask about soil.
look at this potting mix its not miracle gro, but it has 9 months of food, somebody told me on seedlings, you don't want no more than 2 months of food, cause its to much fertilizer for young seedlings, Yall are the experts, you tell me. heres the link to the poting soil mix.

I know, I went to lowes looked at that little bag of styrofoam and thought that bag want do but 3 or 4 pots, styrofoam costing more than the soil, I got 500 styrofoam cups and a blender, ever herd of anybody doing that before I destroy 500 cups?
