Soil for indoor habitat!

Hello to all the torts and their owners jiji!

Just have a simple question!
Im making a big upgrade on the indoor enclosure for the three Reds.
And I want to have an area with top soil, and to plant some seeds to see if things can get it to grow. Can't use the soil from my backyard because of the rocks and is under construction so it is not clean.
My question is this:

Is there a product or a brand of soil that I can use or if there is one that is safe and clean for the torts???

Some hardware here in Puerto Rico sell what they call top soil but I dont trust to be good for the torts.

I use peat moss then throw Organic top soil on top.

I need to see where I can find organic top soil.

Can you get your hands on a turning compost system? You could make your own top soil, if you can't find anything clean enough.

+1 on top soil, though potting soil has less sand content.

Here in Puerto Rico a lot of places sales soil for garden and potting and even it says that is "organic" but the package doesnt says anything about how is made or with what is made and if you look on the internet about the product or the brand it doesnt say anything about it.
Also they added the white foam little thing (i cant remember the name of it)

You're most welcome! You might find a video on youtube that shows you how you can make it at home. My friend had one and says it takes 2-3 weeks to turn stuff into compost.

I was going to make one at home after the construction is done. But the slow way.
Make a square out of blocks and just throw all that I can in it and wait to compost, it takes a lot of time but that way is way more faster.
