You can add a lil less though. It doesn't have to be perfect, you just want enough to break surface tension of the water.
Compacted soil problems showing as over watering?

Yep. Great stuff, but expensive. I like RAW yucca extract also. It's cheaper. LolThis is the stuff you're using right?

I've got a gal on yucca extract that I'm using now. It was like $30 a gal and It's gonna last me awhile. But I like the thought of the dry stuff. I'll check out the RAW.

I add it to my earthbox res also. The soil I have in there is constant moist and fluffy. The plants really love growing in it.This is the stuff you're using right?

Shit, you could just grow an aloe plant, and use the juice from a leaf. I believe that's supposed to be best, but I'm not 100 on that.

I've got a couple aloe plants going now. They just need to get bigger.

Why are you flushing? And what are you feeding them?
Yes, I’m watering and using the same amount of everything that I normally use on every other grow with no problems. The only thing I done different was reuse the soil without breaking it up ?
I flushed because thought there mite be a lockout because of salt build up from the last grow, as some leafs where yellowing and going dry and crispy
No I don’t I believe most premade soil comes with a wetting agent. I know Pro-Mix does.

Why do you think it comes with a wetting agent?

Of course you could aerate the soil manually if you think this is really the heart of your problem.

Makes sense, but I can't imagine it lasts very long, before you need to start supplementing.
