Water Restrictions
You have my sincere sympathy.....we went through a severe drought last
summer, and I wouldn't want to face that again. For what it's worth, my tomatoes folded early last year, but the peppers hung in there, especially the Hungarian semi-hots. Even the bells survived , though, and they were about the only vegetables I was able to harvest. I mulched *heavily*. The other surprise was the asparagus. I didn't get much of a crop, and the fronds didn't get very tall, but it didn't die off, and it got no supplemental water. I was glad I had taken the time and effort to dig deep and amend heavily when I planted them, and again, I had a lot of mulch on the bed. Are you allowed to water containers? That would be a way to get a few tomatoes. Good luck, and I hope you get some--no, lots--of rain. Sue Zone 6, Southcentral PA "George" wrote in message ... In metro Denver.......No watering except for trees and shrubs. Fines to $500 apply. Reservoirs are at 43% capacity and dropping. There goes my garden for this year. I'll set out a few tomato plants and hope for rain, but if it's anything like last year, it's futile. Reminds me of 1933. |
