Re: wilting leaves


Even with plenty o' H2O, some plants will still sag, droop, wilt...a little during hot sunny days. Some folks install elaborate, timed misting systems to beat the heat. I just accept the fact that hot sunny days, sorta tires everything out. I sag a little during the heat of the day!!! LOL Plenty of water is important, but a little sag, is normal for some plants. Plenty of folks have tried, with some success to breed heat tolerance into AG's....great thing coming from Oklahoma, and Arizona this year. Hope this helps.

Could be normal if not watering enough, or it could be bacterial wilt. I
Hope its just a lack of water.

leaves all seem to wilt during the heat of day then bounce back in the
