You should be good with any soil that does not have that much base nutes in it. I can suggest coco coir but thats whole new story. Its like growing in soil (kinda) but with the added growth of hydroponics. If you use normal soil, then any light mix etc should do. It is also good to add something like perlite and/or vermiculite to add airyness to the soil so the roots get more oxygen and those will also reduce the "packing" of the soil during the growth.
