Nope. The "plant food" part will kill your plants.
You need peat moss and pool sand. Add distilled water and mix (half and half). That's the easiest.

Any brand of peat moss will work fine. I like Premier:

The white space in your search confused the forum hyperlink...
To the OP: You should be able to find some regular old non-enriched peat at your local hardware store.
