Hello!

I have some 1 foot tall, 8 foot long by 2 foot wide garden beds filled with compost. They are planted with all sorts of vegetables – carrots, watermelons, tomatos, cucumbers, peppers.

I have drip irrigation running down the middle, plus I have the overhead hose option.

I live in Portland, OR where it is sunny and dry all summer.

My question: How often and how much do I water the garden beds?

Thank you very much!
Laura

I got my first copy of Gardening 101 magazine in the mail today. They had an article about using used motor oil (10w30) mixed with water on your vegetable garden to help with new growth. The recipe called for 1 part Oil to 4 parts water. Anyone tried this?
