So I went to check on the plots where I dug the holes and there's a problem. There's recently been a lot of rain and I noticed where I dug the holes, the ground is sunk in 2 inches and there's an inch of water pooled in some of the holes. This is an outdoor guerilla grow and our soil mixture was 30% miracle grow moisture control, 30% mushroom compost, and 40% native soil which contains clay. I need to fix this please help!

keep plants in the pots/containers until the ground dries up a bit... if it stays too wet all year im not really sure what to tell you... im not sure if you should be worried ?

the sand makes for better drainage....but be careful, if your soil is clay, sand and clay make cement.. :)

LOL! imagine that! :D

dewd just fill up more earth into it, so it makes a little 'hill' , and the water runs off to the sides as opposed to forming a puddle there. problem solved :) aaaand from past experience, the earth in the holes does that when u put it in there, and leave it VERY loose. u need to compact it to get rid or air pockets m8, but then again, dont make it too compact, as the roots need to grow in there ;)
