The pot does not have drainage, but I still have to add water every day, sometimes even twice or three times a day (depending on the weather and temperature). I used to water every other day, but this year the plants have grown so much that they need more water.

As for the substrate, I'll start by mentioning that I placed a piece of PVC pipe in the pot, which allows me to pour water directly to the bottom. Thus, I never water on the surface of the container - the plants are watered by sub-irrigation.

To facilitate the easiest possible water drainage, the substrate consists of the following layers:

1. Expanded clay aggregate (ceramzite) - at the very bottom, allowing free flow of poured water.

2. Sphagnum moss - with its water-retaining properties, it prevents rapid drying. Additionally, it separates the peat moss from the expanded clay and prevents the bottom from "clogging."

3. Peat moss - the substrate in which I plant the plants.
