Default Up potting mixing clay with potting soil!

The problem I have most especially with tomato up planting in flats or 6 pack cubes is soil drying fast! I have a clay area that I now strain and mix with my potting or peat soil mix and it seems to be working. Has anyone tried this? I don't worry about weeds because I dig the top foot of soil off and take the under dirt! Sometimes I also add sand and perlite to the mix. When you plant alot the clay will save you money also! I mix about 1/2 clay to the mix!
