Ken Lain, the Top 10 Gardener, here! The Arizona summer sun can be intense, but don't let it stress out your plants.
First things first, water early in the morning before the heat sets in. Your plants will thank you for a refreshing drink before the day gets too hot.
Next, add a 2-3 inch layer of mulch around your plants to keep the soil cool and prevent moisture loss.
For an extra boost, consider using Wilt Stop, a clear coating that acts like sunscreen for your plants, preventing them from losing too much moisture.
Finally, mix AquaBoost crystals into the soil of your container plants and raised beds. These crystals hold onto moisture and release it slowly to keep your plants hydrated throughout the day.
By following these simple tips, you can help your plants beat the heat and thrive all summer long!
