it sucks to have a huge garden and have to hose water. Here in Hilo I have one long section on drip irrigation but the rest is just me and the hose.
The worst is I have a lot of stuff in large pots not under roof that usually gets by on rain. Because it's so hot and sunny, my plants are losing moisture much faster than usual.
My lawn has gotten semi-brown before and it's come back fine. I don't know what kind it is. Your basic Hilo lawn grass that's been growing for half a century. But reading this made me anxious so I got out my little rotary sprinkler yesterday.
No rain for another week, that's distressing!
Good luck everyone!
