Gardening

Even with veggie gardening we seem to be in uncharted territory - modifications to the climate are game changing, and I think we are all learning (the hard way) what may and may not work going forward. Growing tomatoes used to be easy for me - but the hotter, more humid - and this year, wetter - summers are causing so many attacks by so many different diseases that I am not sure what to do at this point.....and the weed growth (mostly from non-natives) is staggering...

Hoping someone will pipe up and offer more help than I can - but, yes, if it is really dry, nothing that you can do will have a fraction of the impact of what deep natural rains can do - spot watering just creates an opportunity for it to quickly disperse so that the area achieves some sort of equilibrium....
