Besides the greensand, one could try mixing earthworm
castings into your container mix. That usually contains
a wealth of beneficial microfauna, besides the modest
levels of N-P-K, etc.

You probably do not want to overdo that if you plan on reusing
most of the mix (loss of air space), just a couple of handfuls
to inoculate the container.
