👍 It looks like you are learning what works for your location.

The soil looks dry in the pictures. One trick to keep potted plants hydrated longer is to put a pan or container of water under the pots. The roots of the plants can pull up water through the holes of the bottom of the pot. I do this, but one disadvantage is mosquitoes breed in the water, so I have to keep an eye on that and take action before the larvae grow into adults.

Good advice. I have plenty of of those and I'll start using them. I try to water once a day or sometimes every two days when it's not raining.
