Me thinks me's gots a problem...

.

I might have messed up my soil mix and used way too much peat moss.  Was reading another blog and she said a 3.8 cubic foot bag of peat will expand into 5-6 cubic feet.  So instead of a third of peat, vermiculite, and compost, i have close to half peat.

Maybe that's why when i water, it only penetrates half an inch (after 15m of watering) and the mix just below is bone dry.

Gonna leave the half bed alone for now, and experiment with the other half this weekend.

Plus, hopefully another big project will be completed this weekend... besides da ongoing roots excavation project.
