November = 5am Watering

Wow, this is an interesting little experience. Three weeks ago I was struggling to get my summer veggies germinated and this week I am up at 5 am in an attempt to keep everything alive. It seems we are in for a year of extremes.

Andrew is in process of moving pots. Where they are right now and have been for the last two years receives the full afternoon, western, sun. Even the most hardy of plants is know to only cope with that a few days before it looks like it is just willing itself to die. In another case of gardeners serendipity I moved a couple of smaller pots and noticed that all of a sudden plants that were struggling all of a sudden flourished.

For those of you being hit by heat this fortnight I wish you good luck.

We are very very fortunate to have watering systems at our new house. It helps a lot.

I am glad it did the trick.
