I don't like to use any packaged soil that has additives like fertilizers or pesticides. It usually tells you on the list of ingredients.

I use a topsoil from Wickes, if you're in the UK. Sterilised & lime free.

You don't want anything with any additives including those beads that hold moisture, etc. Your tort will eat them. I use plain ol' cheap (no additives) topsoil and mix in organic peat moss. Works like a charm.
