The "Water Movement" article is an answer I gave in an e-mail. I saved it and adapted it for my bonsai club newsletter
remember this article was originally written for keeping trees in pots, so the advice to use bark based soils imo doesnt apply to cannabis. i know the canna likes good drainage but i think using a lot of bark can make a soil a little too acid.

for natural additaves, what's avalible depends on where you are, and is probly too big a question for my small knowledge of organics. i think that the fallen leavesof deciduous trees would make for some good compost and bulking material, also the soft loam found along creeks and river banks, but beyond that i dont know.
