Then I don't guess if it is dry or not. For me, it really does make a huge difference.

I find that the weight of the pot (and its contents~!) is a better indicator of how wet it is, not what it looks like. I can usually tell if something needs to be watered just by picking it up - even with my eyes closed!

I do prefer clear pots myself but that's because I want to see the roots grow. Rarely do I buy things that are clear so sometimes I have to go a while with the black or green ones.
