when you're going out of town for a few days, give them a good dousing before you leave. are they in the ground or in containers?

I get no rain here AT ALL and have lost a girl to thirst. make sure you give it a more thorough watering next time, is all i can tell ya.

herb is very resilient and has surprised me more than once when they have hopped up out of their grave like nothing happened.

I wish OG was still around, I forget who it was but they posted an awesome easy resevoir for us outdoor growers. Ever since I saw it I started using it. If I can bug a friend for a digi I'll try to make a thread.

you can try those water absorbing crystals next time, mix them right into your mix or put them at the bottom of the pot/hole so the roots can always have access to em if they need a sip

Wilting is the way our plants respond to a water shortage. The tiny pores on the underside of the leaves close and the leaves droop. They can tolerate a long period of drought that way.

Amazing what a little water will do.

keep it soaked and plan on losing alot of leaves and some flowers. the plant will slough of leaves left and right before it loses bud. if you can find a main branch that is dieing faster than the rest of the plant, cut it off --- reduce the leaf surface and water heavily after plants have wilted. if the whole plant is browned except for the tip top and it is curled over and leaning- the plant will probably not come back. almost anything short of that and the plant,or a reduced version of it, will survive. mulching helps; water absorbents help; deep soil or large container helps. to be free of watering and grow gigantic plants, grow in an area with large or crowded willows-- on the surface there might not be a stream, but underground there is water year round or there would be no willows there.
