This heat and drought are extraordinary. I feel as if all I do is stress over whether to water to conserve water while trying to keep my gardens alive and our property less at risk of fire. Plants re really drying out, especially highly flammable grasses, forbes, etc Reservoirs look full nearby, which is odd given the water deficit we’re under and the voluntary watering restrictions our ELCO water has called for, plus the mandatory. Water restrictions in many many municipalities in Colorado. Fires are burning up Colorado.
