Tuesday morning.
I'm working on a small grant for the garden project, and it all started coming together last night. But I wasn't able to make it up to Springfield to water the seedlings, and I was worried. The soil we're using has a really high organic matter content, and seems to hold water very well even when it seems dry. Even so, we've got a bunch of young plants and they need to be kept moist.
I went up this morning, with seven gallons of water in the trunk of my car, but when I looked around it seemed like things had been watered since Saturday. Hooray! I thought. But I watered them a tiny bit anyhow. They'll get sunbaked all day and they don't seem to be complaining (*anyone with more knowledge here want to let us know what a plant looks like when it's over watered?).
I think we should put up a chalkboard or something onsite. The dry erase board got warped in the rain. I might make that a project I do soon. It'd be nice to know for sure whether stuff got watered or not.
