i got the perfect blend that has worked every time i have tried. cheap topsoil mixed with peatmoss and perlite about a 3:1:1 and thats all. remember that its the ferts that will make an awsome plant

I highly disagree. The soil is definately more important than the ferts.

Hence the saying... "Feed the soil, not the plant."

If you want to learn more, look into organic cannabis growing. Google should help you to find any information you need. Sample organic soil mixes are widely available using google.

Things like bone and blood meal, fish emulsions, bat or seabird guanos, compost, greensand, are all common soil ingredients. It can be expensive to grow organically, but is definately worth it when you're testing the smoothest, healthiest bud, you've ever grown.

Here's a sample mix

(3.8 cu ft)
8 cups bone meal (phosphorus source)
4 cups blood meal (nitrogen source)
1&1/3 cu[s e[sp, sa;ts (magnesium source)
3-4 cups dolomite lime (calcium source and pH buffer)
1 tsp fritted trace elements
4 cups kelp meal
25-pound bag pure worm castings
