pool filter sand.
yep, mine were to wet. also the downside of sand and gravel is that in a pot it's formidably heavy with a banana in it. pool filter sand allows water to travel thru it readily, but silica sand wants to stay wet. i worked for a company that did monitoring wells for the government, so i have a lot of experience with the stuff.
sand and gravel can be good for starting small plants.
