So what led me to this post was busy today doing transplanting/up-potting for the girls and I always make sure I water the day before so the root ball and the soil stays in the shape of the existing pot for easier transplanting. What I noticed is there seemed to be only certain parts of the rootball and soil structure that were wet even down at the bottom of the pot in some areas. My questions is, does the water actually find or make established channels and therefor not allow a complete root ball /container wetting when doing watering. I hope that makes sense as posed.
I suspect the condition I found is due to channeling and now once you all confirm, what is the fix??? Is there a neutral surfactant or something I can use in organic grows that will allow the entire container to be wetted when watering.?
