All farms and gardens need water, but it would be good if it rained regularly throughout the year and at night! But alas nature has its own cycles and variables to operate by. OK for cropping farmers to get too much rain at the wrong time. In the home garden we can reduce the impact of rain a little if we keep the soil cultivated so it can sink in rather than “run off”. But if we get a LOT of rain it is basically stay inside and be patient!
