Monday, July 25th was planting day! Andrew and I started planting in the morning, but had to stop at mid day because of the heat. We were joined again by Dr. Sarah Williams and Ali Bailey that afternoon and finished putting in all of our plant starts. We finished late, after a gruelingly hot day, and to be honest, the plants had suffered. We were all worried that the small starts wouldn’t survive the heat. But, we irrigated heavily, hoped that the plants would be strong enough to survive the shock, and monitored them closely for the rest of the week.
