It's been hot and humid here in Kansas too and the garden is needing to be watered twice a day which is a lot of work because I water it by hand. Only the rows and some individual plants get watered so we can get a good kill on the weeds. It's the first year for this veggie garden and it was a patch of nothing but weeds before that. Thank heavens for a rototiller and a good husband to use it! I hope your weather has cooled off a bit...ours is to be like this for a while so there's a constant supply of ice cold sun tea in the fridge. Have a wonderful Thursday!
