RE: wilting leaves
Very helpful. I'll do that. Thanks so much!
PS- What's the best material to use for shading?

Darren Oliveri---likely you have transplants and the roots at this stage
cannot supply enough water to the new leaves,so that on a hot day they
naturally wilt.The roots must grow to balance the top.
Best to water a bit extra in the present root zone and shade the leaves
during the heat of the day.
In 7-10 days thr roots should catch up to the top.Then stand back and watch
it grow.

We've been having sunny skies with temps in the upper 80's . My
leaves all seem to wilt during the heat of day then bounce back in the
evening. Is this normal if not what should I do?
Thanks,
Darren Oliveri
