You'd think that the material that doesn't absorb the water would be the 4 lane in the scenario. I just don't get it

. Looks like it's time for a little experiment of my own

. I wonder if the kind of drainage holes in the pot matter. You know, how some have the one in the center, and other have 4 notched out in a square like patter? Putting a permeable material under the soil makes sense for drainage to me... but what's that prove eh?
