Extreme Heat

How is everyone doing dealing with this heat??? I hope those affected by it are all staying as cool as possible.

Next week is going to be brutal. I'm so glad I put the shade cloth up on my greenhouse. The plants are loving it.

Anyone have anything to share as to how you're making g the best out of it???

I water my garden in the morning and have milk jugs filled with rain water, a small hole in the bottom with jute twine sticking out of it to use as a drip irrigation system for my plants. My tomatoes don't rip or get stressed out because they have constant moist soil with no danger of rotting roots. It also helps save water because the jugs last for almost a week. Keeping the soil moist in-between watering. Here's a YT video showing how to do it without the jute twine. Get creative, do what works for you. I like th twine because I can direct the twine to several plants at a time without being wasteful
