What's Your Favorite Mix?

Soil - that is.

I buy the standard bonsai soil mix (sand, peat, loam) from the local nursery. For some plants I add extra sand for quicker drain. I've ordered some akadama (from eBay seller, of course) and anxiously waiting to try mixing that with my mix from the nursery.
