I'm not going to get into the argument of soil vs Coco, but when it comes to Coco you have to water everyday and with fert everyday until runoff, that seems like a lot of wasted fertilizer to me,. A good soil mix with plenty of compost only needs watering every 3 to 4 days (in a decent sized pot) see how far to 2 1/2 kilos of mega crop goes then

What no other addatives needed?
Don’t “need” any other additives but you can add a couple of things to boost its performance. Keeping on the cheap theme and mostly using base salts, I like mono potassium phosphate (mkp) to boost phos levels in early/mid flower, I also like foliar feeding calcium Nitrate in veg/early flower to boost calcium levels as well as magnesium sulphate (Epsom salts), I use nts trio which is a cal/nit based foliar spray with magnesium and boron added and is pretty cheap when you look at the dosage rates (2-4ml per
L for foliar spraying)

Can also add beneficials like myco etc.

Using a heavy salt (like mega) in soil pretty much kills all the biological actions with the soil pretty much turning it into expensive coco with some extra nutes and weird cation exchange capacity. There’s plus And minus’s to both media’s, coco allows for quicker growth/nutrient uptake and more dissolved oxygen to the rootzone.
