I've read that a great mix to start with for beginners is one part good quality potting soil, one part worm castings and some perlite for aeration and better drainage. That's it! You won't get the best results but you probably won't be disappointed either. 

 

Maybe add mushroom compost to the mix as well 

 

What brand potting soil does PNP sell?

Spend the money and buy decent soil. I started with that picknpay stuff and it's full of unnecessary crap. Buy decent soil from a gardening place. In most cases, the more you spend, the better the soil. I now use a German mix. I add worm castings, perlite, vermiculite, Turbo Grow, and even some Leca. What you don't want is to spend R50 on soil, and the grow fails. Spend the R150-R250 and make a rich soil that produces a decent crop.
