Default Wonder Soil Drainage

When I first started my container planting regimen I was overcompensating watering.What I did was to let the plants dry out/droop so as to get the timing down on watering.As the plants got larger you can almost time the watering.The beans(Gigandes,Chinese Long beans),Melons,Cantalopes always gave me leaf problems when over watered.Those leaves needed good air circulation to keep dry to thwart the fungal issues.Until the rootball gets well established in the Wonder Soil the water seems to drain to good and fast and collect in my container trays(which I use as a watering caliber).So I adjusted the water accordingly.
