It was nice and wet a few days ago and today it's dry and wilty.
(Nasturtium seedlings; they don't shade the surface yet.) The basket is
hanging in bright shade and gets a little sun early in the morning.

Would spraying the surface with a little soapy water help?

Thanks,
Bob


After the plant shades the soil, you may find it still gets bone dry if it's
in the sun all day. Hanging baskets, in general, are about half as large as
they should be.
