I am currently growing a plant in a beer cup and I am using 2 scoops of soil to one scoop of perlite. So their shouldn't be draining issues but whenever I water it, it's so heavy. It seems like the water stays on the bottom and doesn't come out. I have multiple holes for the water to come out. Any ideas?
Well when you water it should feel heavy because you filled it up with water , am I missing something ? You probably have a very water re-tentative soil . Just be sure to let in dry good before watering again You could try more multiple holes or add a wick . Perhaps some better soil in your future ? Now I have question for you was Valerie a sweet roll in the sack or what ?
I know what you mean but when I used to grow, the pot was never as heavy as the one I am growing now. Lol I don't know who Valerie is.
