Thinking of watering?

18 years ago

Well since there is no snow to melt my beds seem very,very dry ...looks like no rain all week. I was thinking of watering the beds....kinda like its raining cold water. Would this be a bad idea. I just don't want any new sprouts to dry out! Any advice before I go do this?...wayne

I was thinking the same thing with regards to my front bed which is as dry as a bone. This year I will have to add a lot of compost to that bed. The beds in back that have had a lot of compost too are doing fine and should be fine for most of the week without water.
