What brand name starter soil is everyone using. Trying to find the best, but have been so far disappointed.

my mix is close to tommans 1/4 vermiculite- 1/4 perlite- 1/4 potting soil - 1/4 peat moss i also bottom warm this mix to 80 degrees f keep it covered so it doesn't dry out and bubble the seeds that have been filed in a weak solution of water and seaweed extract for about 10 min (thanks len s.) but think i will keep my soil mix and use joe a's advanced seed starting method for germination this year
