If using strictly organics? Not only is your soil re-useable., it will improve with age. I use 29 gallon storage totes to put mt used soil in. Remove all large roots and obvious foreign matter. Then leave for the winter. Come spring I add at least half as much new soil and amend as if new. Moisten lightly and gold in about a week. Hope it helps. Dirt only is useless after synthetics.

I have a bin for new soil and a bin of old soil. When I up pot, I transplant over the old bin(all different types of soil). Get out the old and in with the new. I amend the soil with new soil (FF Happy Frog), perlite, and sprinkle a couple tablespoons of epsom salt. I use the old soil for young cuttings and seedlings

I reuse what I can from spent mixes ( even some roots ) , sometimes I break up over screens / catch tote to aerate / catch clumps.
I re ammend with EWC , Neem meal ( bug prevention ) / pumice / MYCO / scoop or so of dry fertilizer ( recipe 420 ) , hydrate it and seal tub .
From spent bags ( SOG ) I use left over to use in germ cup starts … plenty of initial Nutes in it to get seedling up and running.

I cringe at FF as the new. Spent will serve you well with amendments and cut. Glad you like it. I composted more than a few bags since the S.C. factory came on line.I have a bin for new soil and a bin of old soil. When I up pot, I transplant over the old bin(all different types of soil).

My go-to is Mother Earth Terra Craft Potting soil. ME 60% FFHF 30% perlite 10%
I like the Happy Frog for the beneficial microbes. Them 2 soils go together pretty well for their NPK Ratios

Besides dry tea and frass? I add compost from my yard and active fungi from 1 year of wet aged long dead white oak bark. Ha Ha. But it works well.
