Summer
More of the same as last month. Keeping everything well watered and weeded. A good soaking of the soil once a week is better than daily watering.

A good soak, an hour, helps the water penetrate the soil and helps the plants get their roots deep into the soil. Daily watering of small amounts keeps the roots shallow and more dependant on your watering.
