Plant on hills. Use lots of perlite in your mix. Maybe grow above ground if possible. And don't forget your bug spray.
When you get to know them, you plants will tell you when they need water. But since the leaves is how water leaves a plant, the more leaves, the more water it needs. Seedlings need almost no water at all, while monster plants can use gallons a day.

Not too much you can do in a clandestine grow except put more drainage in your soil, stay out of hollows and use fabric pots. Once they have some size to them, it will take a lot of water to kill them. Like standing water turning the soil to soup.

I have the same problem where I live. I always buy some polymer crystals (water absorbing) to mix in with my soil. It works like a charm and you can get them at harware stores and even walmart.

Right now I'm having a crazy amount of rain. But during the summer it usually dries out. I add red lava rock to my soil mix to help with water retention. All the little pores fill up with water when it rains, then slowly releases it over time.

I wouldn't worry to much with an outdoor grow on this stuff. So long as there not in a boggy/flood prone area
