Well.. How do you do it? I was thinking about soaking it in a pot and then puting it in a collander but I think it would just fall out the holes in the collander wouldnt it?
How do You guys do it?

till its almost at full capacity. when you pick some up in your hand and squeeze it, only a few to no drops should come out.

I think RR explained field capacity really well. He said something to the effect of: when you squeeze it gently, a few drops should come out. When you squeeze it hard, it should come out in a steady stream.

Read my pinning strategy to learn what proper water delivery is. Remember moisten well but not so much as it's dripping and even if it's slightly on the dry side you'll be or at least you should be misting it to "near saturation" anyway after it's applied.
