Need swamp grow advice

So this year i plan on doing another swamp grow, so im preparing early. Last year was my first year growing and it went very smoothly with the exception of visiting the site too often. The grow spot was located in a swampy marsh area very populated with cattails. I had 3 nepalese grizzly plants on one pallet in 5 gallon buckets that i had to water/fertilize about once a week. This season i want to cut down on visiting the site as often. The plans i had in mind were either 1.) make swamp tubes, or 2.) use 20-30 gallon containers and rig them to wick up water from the swamp. So my questions are: whats a good wicking material to supply the plants with a sufficient amount of water if i dont follow through with swamp tubes, and whats a good organic soil mix that will supply the plants with sufficient amount of nutes without having to fertilize often.

Also, if you know any strains that would thrive in a swampy environment and finish by the first of October or earlier, feel free to let me know.

thanks guys, can anyone suggest any strains that will do well in a swamp? i also forgot to add that the swamp has 1foot of water in the early season and lowers to about 4 inches in september
