Well I sort of lift, and tilt the pot. It can still be moist to the finger, but developing dry spots. The reason I tilt is so I can 'feel' the weight of the plant and the weight of the pot.

Put fresh soil in a pot from the bag. That is about minimum weight. At least that is a start. Then water it. Feel that...........now comes the really, really hard and most important part.................remember what it felt like. :jointsmile:
