What it means
What that means for what you grow
- Pots and hanging basketsWorth checking by hand even so — a pot in the sun can dry out in a wet week, because there is so little soil to hold anything.
- Beds and bordersNothing needed. Watering soil that is already wet does more harm than good.
- New plantingsAnything planted within the last month is the exception; its roots have not spread far enough to find water on their own.
