soggy soil

the first couple inches gets dry in a few days but it stays moist below for days and days.. i have black gold soil organic and perlite mixed with it... what is the deal? is that bad that the soil is moist below?

just gotta watch out for root rot. is it damp or wet? like if you had a handful of the dirt from the bottom of the pot do you think you could squeeze water out of it?

probably not probably damp.. is damp ok? there is no drainage ever tho... and i think growth has been kinda slow but idk if its root rot

the amount of water an indoor plant needs will vary a lot.... depending on what light source you are using,the size of the pots and the temp (to name just a few of the variables).... I have been vegging with LED's and fluro's in 10 litre pots and its winter so its cool,,, I water them every 8 days or so but my flowering plants under 600w HID light need it every 4 days or so....I suggest that you just water them when they need it and not worry to much...most plants like their roots to be in moist soil and if the soil feels dry a inch or so underneight the surface then its time for a drink... hope this helps :^)

try not watering until medium is BONE dry,,then proceed
