Take it easy with the soil moist - I used too much in the beginning and it was all over the place when it rained.<br /><br />EileenGatsbys Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04228978705943696143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243579953985871041.post-26670368485832752692010-04-27T12:29:59.674-05:002010-04-27T12:29:59.674-05:00Hi Sonya,

I well remember the first time I tried soil moist. Potted up my basket and watered it... an hour or so later I walked by and the plants were all laying on the ground... I apparently used way too much of the product! it's powerful stuff!
