You must live in the clay...
Down in Florida and where I live in the Sandhills ... It's all white sand...
The problem is getting containers to reabsorb water... after thoroughly drying out during the summer heat...
Around here...
Add water... It drains straight through w/o wetting the potting soil at all!
I still question whether growing food in a galvanized metal container is a healthy choice...
