>>2751910all right, you really want an answer. just chill for a sec. ive got uncle johns band on, ill type it out for ya
>temperature swings, i assume means you either wish or believe adding water to soil stabilizes soil temperatureyou are correct, that's how water and soil and flora works
>bury a clay pot mostly i assume you mean terracotta. clay pots would be damn near as porous as ceramic, meaning, not very porous. clay is a soil classification term. it refers to particle size. only particle size. dont use the word "clay" unless you know the definition. terracotta is porous. if you wanna bury a ton of terracotta pots around your yard, go for it. if you want the same effect, but not retarded, read ANY journal article explaining how a french drain works, then apply to your own purpose.
