For one plant, no it won't. Beginning growers don't need complications like this. I use bagged soil exclusively, there's nothing wrong with it.
To eugenex, if you find cactus or bonsai soil, no need for added grit. If the bag says something like "cactus, palm, citrus soil" add some grit but only about 25%.
