Are you Water Wise?

Although severe storm warnings occurred through out the state of Virginia, the rain bypassed Richmond and is not expected for another week; so, this morning, I'll water my newly installed test plants with water salvaged from my home's AC condensation.

Unfortunately, most AC condensation is simply drained next to a house foundation. While I know you will think I'm exaggerating when I say - on a really hot VA dog day, I've collected up to 25 gallons of water - I'm not. For, I'm sharing a tip gathered through experience.

Be creative and identify what water sources available at your home site. Become water wise!
