The process I've been using -- spray bottle, nozzle pointed directly at edges of the pot and fairly close. Three water bursts to each side, so that the water drips down (well, for the most part...) the inside edge of the pot. Theory being that we want the roots to stretch out. I don't remove each pot from the tray, I just change the position of the tray so that I can do the next side. Good in theory and practice? What say you (all you more experienced growers...) 😌
Another question I have -- is it a wise procedure to finish off the newly potted up tuber with Vermiculite which would help keep the soil moist longer? I've just started doing this, but I want to make sure this is a wise move. My pots do seem to dry out rather quickly (I'm using 2 different types of LED - white and the dastardly 'full spectrum' which I hate). If this is a wise move, how deep would the Vermiculite need to be to be most effective? Just a splattering to cover the surface or an inch or more?! Thanks, all....
