Post #5155884

Every time I try planting in a pot, the soil sets up like cement and gets really hard. I haven't had any luck with it at all. What am I doing wrong? It doesn't seem to matter if the container has drain holes in the bottom or not. Or what kind of plant I use Or if its in sun or shade, the dirt just gets really hard. What am doing wrong
Thanks
