Outdoor soil recomendation

I have a good garden store near me so i should be able to get most things.

Im growing just a few plants in big pots this year. Still deciding on how big i want them. Is there a simple recipe that i can mix and be good all season just using tap water. My ppms are only around 30 out the tap so i think im good with filtering, but I'll probably have to use enough or the right ph buffer so i can use tap all the way through. What are the other essentials besides perlite. Im not a noob, just tryna get the bases covered.

Pro-mix with 10% cow manure and a cup of bone meal per plant all mixed
in for starters. Add other organic nutrients once in a while and you'll be ok.
