Coco coir and Brunnings organic potting mix?

[Grower2020]

Will I be ok to use this mix of coco and potting mix for my final pot ? I'm not using perlite as I can't afford it and it's not really essential anyway.
Both of these coco and potting mix contain zero added nutrients. So if I use a and b plus calmag will I be ok to grow autos in this?

The soil has organic nutrients in it.
Why are you mixing coco and soil?
They have different pH requirements for proper nutrient uptake and coco has to remain wet, while soil has to go through a wet/dry cycle.

It's not soil it's potting mix. It will dry up just as fast as the coco.

If I ph at six I should be right. I'm growing outdoors and it's hot here so the potting mix with coco will dry fast but not quite as fast as coco alone. I'm aiming for some to mix in with the coco so I only have to water once a day

Well I am not going to use that slow release mix you said not to use. I am going to buy some coco and potting mix. Or would coco and sand be better. Keep in mind these plants are in harsh humid conditions
