Moisture in your Containers

admin — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 10:00:37 +0000

Container plants (those in pots, window boxes, hanging baskets, etc...) are the first to be affected by lack of water. Since the container itself is exposed on all sides the sun and heat cause the limited amount of soil to dry up much quicker than in a garden. As a general rule you should water containers until the water drains out the holes in the bottom. During the summer it is not unusual to do this two or three times a day.

Blooming, Not Burning...

admin — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 10:00:32 +0000

Different flowers have different watering needs. The one inch of water per week rule is a good start but it's always best to keep an eye them. Look for the telltale signs of drought stress including wilt, droopiness, and the premature loss of foliage and/or blooms. Like vegetables your flowers will benefit from deep and infrequent waterings. Also, a couple of inches of mulch will do wonders to help retain soil moisture during the hot sunny weather.
