G'day all...

Thanks for your responses, Alan and Jim...

My soil mix is non-organic...equal parts of lava, pumice, and OilDri (or
Turface)...with 5-7 percent organic added.

I very rarely water more than once daily, keeping in mind that I live at 4550'
elevation, 2000' above Tucson, 7-10 degrees F lower than Tucson...at the upper
edge of the Arizona High Desert.

Have a nice day...
