So, reading up on the miracle of the plastic colander, I'm sold.
But, I have a few technical questions:
I am mostly trying to develop shohin sized trees.
I have wet winters, hot dry summers. Zone 8a with summer highs in the upper 90's with a few triple digit days (32C +)
I use a 1:1:1 DE : pumice : scoria 1/8"-1/4" substrate
should I adjust my soil content/ratios/particle size in order to avoid watering more than once a day when I switch to colanders?
I assume additional wind protection is order? suggestions?
Winters here generally are between freezing and the low 50's (0-10 C)
Moving from pots to colanders, are there any gotchas to consider?
This is new territory for me and I'm kinda embarrassed I didn't know about this sooner, so any tips appreciated.
