I had to chuckle when I saw this thread! It seems all I get done doing this year is watering the containers and the greenhouse. Thursday I spent over an hour on just the containers and not two hours after that we had a nasty storm and over an inch of rain. Last nights storms missed us but we had only a few drops of rain so it will be back to the hose again today.
The glads I have in the field to cut and sell are getting dry and the heat is taking it's toll on them. The flowers are wilting on the bottom before the top ones are even looking like they will open.
I get 50cents a stem for these beauties and I was hoping they would at least pay for themselves this year. Oh well, in the gardening business you never know.
Stay safe all you lovely people and don't forget take care of your animals and birds in this heat.
