Which soil/ compost??

I am keen to start growing my own weeds for my baby so I know exactly what she is eating but am not sure what I should plant them in? I will be growing mostly indoors as the UK weather does not allow for too much outdoor growing..lol. I wasnt sure if shop bought compost contains fertilisers and if they would be harmful to my tort?? Would organic compost be better?? I have plenty of seeds....just need to know what to put them in..

Thanks guys...

Charlie, Yes Organic compost only. As we discussed in a different thread, other compost contain Fertilizers and chemicals. Fertilizers and other chemicals like plant sprays, bug sprays get into the weeds when they grow and your tort will ingest them and they will make him/her sick. So only Organic compost.
