Frustration with finding 5-1-1 ingredients...

I have been trying to gather all the items needed for this mix and am ready to go buy a potting mix to just get thru this season. I am just wanting a mix for containers for annuals. Is there anything out there that will do well for two or three months?

I have the perlite, sphagnum, crf, and can get the lime, but the pine bark fines seem to be harder to find.

I also noticed that one of the local nurseries is selling their own mix of: vermiculite, sphagnum, perlite, Osmacote and Soil Moist. Would this mix work?

Any help would be appreciated. I just want to get this done!
