I use Aqua Soil Amazonia II in both of my current planted tanks, and am by far pleased with the product. Especially for planted tanks, it is important that you provide plants with a nutrient rich substrate; plain gravel is not recommended for planted tanks.
What type of plants were you planning on keeping, and what is the tank size? Another factor you might want to think about is the lighting, for different types of plants require different amounts of lighting. Along with the lighting and substrate, Carbon dioxide is needed by plants in order to use photosynthesis, so you may have to accommodate the lighting by injecting pressurized CO2. It is crucial to have a balance of light, CO2, and fertilizers (the substrate, along with additive fertilizers) in the tank. Good Luck!
