I'd say don't shade them, and just let mother nature do her thing. The drooping is probably from over-watering, and you shouldn't shade any of this rare sunshine you have haha
haha thats funny as balls lol

just the metal shaving coils that ya get when you thread a pipe. works amazing for slugs and keeps mice away too because it cuts there feet im guessing.

I went to Lowes for the Ortho product, but they were all sold out. Gardener's around here are having all sorts of probs with slugs. I went to a mom and pop garden center and I found it there. They also carried an organic product but it was 13 bucks more...organic=better growing, but also equals more $$.where did you get that stuff? i've been using coil metal shavings around the base of my plants.

the HomeDepot near me has been out of slugg bait for like a week and a half, along with all the other garden stores around me. I just found out that my wal-mart has a garden section i didn't even know about.. i ended up geting double the amount of bait for half the price

hey guys first post here but figured this one would be good to reply to
ny here
yes the rain does suck
but some of the best pot comes from where i am near
mine are thriving
i have a friend that got some at the same time i did and his are comparably smaller which i believe feeding them helps and little more care than normal
rain water makes for less watering and better taste i think
prob watered thre to four times so far this year
im forgetting something but whatever im ripped

yeah the only up side of the rain is i dont have to walk out to water them... i have only watered like 4 times also, and it was only for a medium to put the plant food in. but we got some a couple of nice days in a row... looks like we finally got the summer weather, am i going to have to be the first person to put pics on this thread to get it going or what?

i only use the berkshires as a pharm, but they are beautiful. last time i was up there it was raining pretty hard and my camera phone didn't do the trick. but i have one that's pushing four feet, and another that was topped by a deer (thanks bambi) that has sent three new leaders up and is around 3 feet. transplanted some mountain mist that wasn't doing so well indoors and they're struggling to catch up to the others, but still fighting strong. i just found my camera charger so hopefully i can get some photos up for you horticulturists to scope.
