I use plastic landscape containers.
There are all kinds of way to boost faster root development.
Do a search on soilless mixs containing mycorrhizae and related products.
There are many on the market and some can be found at big box stores
For me I find using a light and airy home made perlite and peatmoss mix a good starting foundation in containers and you can build to that with other soil amendments
For a starter fertilizer I had picked up some Espoma Organic Garden fertilizer to mix in the soil as a kicker.
I have found many folks has their own special technique that works for them
Heavy fertilization is not good for root development of small plants .
Check out this link and browse some of the other plant albums you might be able to take away something that might help
Container mix
Youtube offers a few good how to videos just pick and choose what is good for you. Keywords root development.
