Blogger is acting weird (again)<br /><br />Lamb, Good luck with your ventures on your Fall Garden, it sounds like you have a decent idea with your shade covers. Hope it works out for ya!<br /><br />Steven, that might work... but we are so far out in the country I would need to wait for a full moon to be able to see out there! It's dark out here in the woods...<br /><br />MomLady, I sure do hear ya about the humidity. Ya'll have it worse than we do on that. And like you, I don't do cold either.<br /><br />Kris, we have been blessed the past day or two with cooler temps! Somehow 95 doesn't seem nearly as hot as 111~~ lol<br /><br />JackedUGMom... maybe we will get lucky, yes?<br /><br />AiSR, That's not a bad idea, thanks. My big concern with the water is that with the drought I would hate to see the well go dry.

Anyhow he suggested putting a soaker hose on the roof. It seems it reduced the temp in his house by about 20 degrees F. May not help the garden but could help you all stay cooler. If you can afford the water cost.Adventures in Self Reliancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992613362743785392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-78823566880289025922011-08-10T17:58:15.629-06:002011-08-10T17:58:15.629-06:00Sci- its like Africa desert hot here too.

I was thinking the same thing you are; should I wait to start fall garden crops? I may try starting a few things indoors. That way if the temps pick back up, maybe I can keep the plants alive inside until they get out of the fragile stage. If it's still too hot when it's time to transplant...I'll have to cross that bridge when I come to it. Maybe mulching and extra watering will help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-17361264058962800552011-08-10T06:59:12.663-06:002011-08-10T06:59:12.663-06:00Not getting much done here in GA either.

While I can stand heat better than cold, this is extreme.Momladyhttp://brightblessings.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-79000899027768428442011-08-10T06:34:12.747-06:002011-08-10T06:34:12.747-06:00It's the same here in North Florida but with h...It's the same here in North Florida but with humidity.

The heat is so bad, it literally makes me ache! Not sunburn ache...my bones ache!<br />I am hoping for a Fall garden, too and am going to improvise with tarps and such. I'll see how it goes, but I have to admit, I am not that hopeful. :(Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04083153173061255844noreply@blogger.com
