How to Drought-proof Your Vegetable Garden

March 24, 2020 by Astrid Lee Reiki Master

In our last ‘We Are One World Healing’ session I walked around in our garden as I was sending the loving reiki energy around the globe. The reiki persistently made me focus on a healed world (basically prohibiting my thinking about current crisis). As well as that, it did constantly make me aware: learn now how to drought-proof your vegetable garden. So, here I am, on the blog, sharing a new article on this topic. Chances are: I am not alone in the need to to learn this. Enjoy!

10 Tips How to Drought-proof Your Vegetable Garden

How to Drought-proof Your Vegetable Garden

TIP 1

Train your plants to search for water. How to? Deep watering instead of frequent watering.

TIP 2

If you group plants that need a lot of water together, you can give extra water to just them, and not your entire garden.

TIP 3

Organic mulch seems amazing. Why did I not think of that before! it keep weeds out, it protects the soil from drying out through evaporation and keeps it cooler, and yeah, looks beautiful as well. You’ll need 3-4 inch, or 7-10 cm worth of mulch. Grass clippings, dried leaves, pine needles, straw and shredded bark: all good.

TIP 4

Ok. As I bought 100% pure organic soil, it’s clear, I urgently need to boost my soil structure by adding a huge amount of organics like compost and aged manure. I’ll raid the worm farm in the shed soon.

TIP 5

Keep weeding! As weeds steal your vegetable’s water, you better get rid of them as soon as you see them. Grass ditto. Weeds tend to be better at sucking up that water than your cultivated plants, so yeah, this tip is a must-do.

TIP 6

And then fertilise your plants as you grow. Apparently well-fertilised plants are more efficient in their water absorption. So there you go.

TIP 7

Plant the right plants. Did you know that plants with grey-green or silver leaves reflect the sunrays which helps them with moisture retention. So, pick those. Come to think of it: Lots of Mediterranean plants have silvery leaves: lavender, sage … Here are some water-efficient vegetables: asparagus, chard, eggplant, mustard greens, peppers, Roma tomatoes, and California native strawberries.

TIP 8

I also heard of watering in the evening, so that the sun will not evaporate all that lovely moisture, but instead it will feed your plants at night.

TIP 9

I also heard of watering in the evening, so that the sun will not evaporate all that lovely moisture, but instead it will feed your plants at night.

TIP 10

Rig out a drip irrigation system. They can reduce your water usage by up to half. Excellent!

Well, implementing these 10 tips for how to drought-proof your vegetable garden are probably a great start. Let me know how you get on. If you have other ideas on how to drought-proof your garden, please do let us know. I’ll add them to this list here. Thanks for sharing in advance.
