Lebende Erde spülen
Ich weiß, bis zur Ernte dauert es noch. Aber da ich rein organisch anbaue, stellt sich mir die Frage, ob ich vor der Ernte spülen soll. Macht es Sinn -oder ist es überhaupt möglich- eine lebendige Erde zu spülen?

Not watered for a week. Why does the soil not dry even from above?
Four fabric pots of 27 liters. Below is drainage from vermiculite, above is a layer of coconut, above is soil from peat, humus, sand and perlite, purchased. In the upper layer, perlite is twice as large.

What and why?
What are these and do I need to address it? I'm a couple of weeks in to my grow and just spotted these little critters when I was cleaning my run off saucers. I'm guessing there's more inside the soil are they harmful to my plants?

Planting directly into soil with full of other roots? (Outdoor Guerilla Autoflower)
The site is full of brambles with dense rootzones. I have dug a hole but its full of roots. Is it OK if I cut down every single root from my hole? Could my plant catch bacteria and etc from the brambles roots? Won't the brambles roots suck away all my nutrient from my plant?

The possibility of using runoff, oxygenated, tested, adjusted to hydro levels and reused? Will it work or have I wasted money again?
I'm using my own mix of soil composed of approx. 30% advanced organics potting soil, 30% peat, 15% coco, 15% perolite, 10% .5x.5x.5 compost. I am using a drain table and 2- 40 gallon fabric pots, capturing all my runnoff into a large tote that is being oxygenated, will this work?

Outdoor ideas
Quick question to any guerrilla growers: I have found an ideal location that’s good for light and hidden. But when I dig the soil down about 1ft water starts to appear, any ideas because I really don't want to have to give up the location because of it... Sawn off pots? Maybe
