If you can’t keep up with your mix, add a more moisture retaining substance

I grow in a dryer mix than your, less bark( like 1:20 parts) and add lava rock. I water daily (including god’s help) and i couldn’t keep it moist without a dish (I do that for some plants so that the dry mix stays moist) but that is all because I live in a swamp and I am a waterer

As ES said, dial it into your habits and then you are feeling the flow!
