The best soil for monkey puzzle trees is a very well-drained soil containing a high proportion of bark, coconut coir, expanded clay, and such materials in addition to a smaller amount of organic matter. You can start with a smaller container and repot in larger containers as the tree grows. This article has more information on fertilizer:
