thats not ranting...thats frustration. i had the same feelings last summer. we had a drought,and the rivers were down 22-26 inches. so they said no outside watering..ok not a prob. but every single business in town was out watering their plants at noon.every day. buy drought tollerant plants, wave petunias,merigolds cacti! ok the best time to water is am. there is less water evaporation. and your plant will absorbe more water in the am then it will in the pm( im talking annuals and perrenials, not nanas) lol! and the run off from them overwatering really made me mad. so i decided that i was going to mulch my yard in( to keep from having to look a brown crunchy grass in the summertime). and i dare them to tell me i cant water my nanas. i have a plan.i think i will use the plastic milk jug as a drip irrigation. recycle-reuse.
lol!! hahahahahah hehehehe
