Watering

Hello Gardeners,
I'd like to ask that no one water the community plot unless they talk to me first. The brand new tomato plants are getting yellow leaves, which means they are being over watered and might die. I know it is happening with the best of intentions, but if we don't know when the garden is getting watered, we can't monitor it very well and the opportunities for over-watering are VERY high.

No one should water at all when we have a soaking rain - if there's puddles on the ground, don't water your plots!

Thanks and have a great weekend - the 90 degree temps start back up next week and it will be important to water as appropriate with the heat!
