Keep it moist, not wet. I have 15 gal no-till pots, and I just try to keep the soil moist. If it dries out, the microbes will stop working, therefore the soil won't cook. I don't cover mine personally.So I have super soil that's bin cooking for about 40 some days now nd I looked the other day nd it was kind da dry. Do I add more water when it gets dry like that or just let it go? Nd I also wont be using it for about another 60 days or so.
Do the microbes die off it overdry or just go dormant?Keep it moist, not wet. I have 15 gal no-till pots, and I just try to keep the soil moist. If it dries out, the microbes will stop working, therefore the soil won't cook. I don't cover mine personally.
Some go dormant, and some will die. To keep the microbes happy, keep the soil moist, not wet. I try not to ever let my no-till soil dry out. It's different if you're using chemical nutes. For organics, you really don't want it to fully dry out.Do the microbes die off it overdry or just go dormant?
