Hello Walter:
I read with interest your reply to Vicki about "a potting procedure I
like." Could you expand on this? I too, am in a hot area, (El Paso) and am
already seeing the effects of the hot afternoon sun on my vegetable garden.
What size pots are you using and I would assume you are using plastic -
right? What are you using as a potting medium? Thanks!
