I have some "sentinels" that start drooping right away when too dry. Usually around 1 pm on hot days, and then again around 6 pm. So I drip around those times and they go into the night all perky and wake up that way too.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

So I drip around those times and they go into the night all perky and wake up that way too. Us, too, for the first time! It was 90+ today and hot & sunny; first time during our 20+ year marriage, but I am glad that this is one myth that has died a quick and painless death! 
My cat sometimes runs out of water without me realizing it; imagine me having to water plants.
I like to water plants whenever it will do the most damage, so I won't have to water them any more. Where is the scientific research on how to kill plants while pretending to nurture them?

In Kentucky there is a lot of condensation overnight. Watering in the evening or night can lead to mildew. Mornings are best.

She tried various plants, including cacti, they all died. So I come one day and there's plastic ivy draped over my computer hutch. The next morning half the leaves had fallen off the artificial vines. She gave up. |
