cover the surface with straw hay so no soil is exposed this will help the soil stay cool and moist

use a higher amount of pete moss , there is a product out there it looks like rock salt but turns into a jello consistency once watered that is mixed with the soil keeps plants going between watering

Other folks have here but not me. I don't need them. Ask around though you'll get some feed back.

I ran into problems useing it ,

I was not expecting it to hold as much water as it did and for the lenth of time it did , That in combo. with a wet year and I had casses of root rot

Miracle grow moisture control is basicaly the same stuff mixed with soil


I think this year im going to experment with useing a inch or so as a top dressing (Of the moisture control since I already own it)

For me Id rather not have a soil that's consistently moist, I believe it'd be more problematic, I like to have the soil dry up after a period of time, then water again

I've found most cannabis, like tobacco, prefers to dry out between waterings. I don't believe thàts much of a secret though, ha ha.
