I'm planning on setting up a couple of raised beds to grow a variety of peppers and tomatoes. I found a local company that will deliver a nice-looking soil-less mix for about $70/yd^3 (plus $60 delivery fee). They say it would be suitable for direct use with peppers -- can I get an unbiased opinion on it? Is it a good deal, will it work well? It would certainly be nice to not have to pick a recipe and do the mixing myself (this is my first time).
They describe the mix as: "Gro-Pro is all Organic Soil-less mix made of Peatmoss, Coconut Husk Fiber, Redwood Compost, Perlite, Sand, Chicken Litter and Organic Fertilizers. Each batch is extensively tested and PH balanced to +/- 6.5 ph. We load this mix up so that you will get the plant growth you desire!"

Could I also use this mix in 5-gal root pouches? I plan to grow some peppers in the raised beds and some in containers, as an experiment.
