I hate Peat Pots. They should rename them Root Restrictors. And, as you noticed, they lose moisture at a fast rate. So much easier - and cheaper - to transplant from a plain old plastic pot that you can reuse next year.

(To be fair, I've spoken to Europeans who say they their peat pots are much thinner and less restrictive so they don't need to remove them. Maybe yours are like those. But I still don't see that they gain you anything.)

You have your peat pots sitting over a water feed? That sounds like a recipe for disaster.
