It's getting pretty hot in our area and my container plants are suffering. How do you guys manage your container plants?

Lucky you! Depending on the plant, we have found water retaining granules to be very helpful.

I suggest that in really hot areas you soak them first, so they take as much water as possible and expand to the size of marbles, then mix into the soil.
