>>>Thanks, Frank. You're right about the watering issue. Of course, you realize there was no reason to water an empy bed, right? (And no, it shouldn't have been empty in the first place, but then I'm learning here -- and perennially a little short of time.) Who knew it'd be such a beast to water later? Well,I do now!>>>

         I wonder if you were to add vermiculite to the soil. I think
that would help hold moisture in. Does the book recommend this? I am
beginning to use this, but I don't measure it, just add it when I plant.
The soil we have in Florida is so dry that we have to keep it moist
continually, unless it rains. Last year when it didn't rain all summer,
I lost a catnip plant that could have continued to grow.
