104 temp today affecting my tomatoes and peppers
(1/1)
duh:
My tomatoes have had all their leaves crisped in this heat and the pepper leaves are wilted. Is there any chance these will recover. I haven't been able to do much with them since I've been sick.
The rain has come in short bursts that doesn't saturate the ground it just removes the topsoil. I am so disappointed. They were looking so good with all the tomatoes on the vine that I just knew I was finally going to have a fantastic year and then this.
So "Ice Cream" it. So to speak.
Sorry I'm just feeling a case of the "poor mes"
Dianna:
It was 88 here earlier and the temperature dropped to 86. Looks like we have some storm clouds moving in... :SmileyFear:
I am sorry to hear that you have been sick, Duh. I hope you get to feeling better soon... :-*
Is that why the plants have been crisping up? Not being able to get water out to them? If so, I would try giving them a little water and see if they will bounce back. It is worth a try. Good luck!
I think there are a lot of "poor me's" going around with this heat! :)
MassMama:
It is now 95 here ... I have been watering every evening and my peppers still wilt ... but bounce right back after being watered...
Hope you feel better soon!!
duh:
Thankyou both for you supportive words. I'll cross my crossables and keep on watering.
