or do we still have several left to do? did we get the 1.28 gallon
flush toilets? What about our faucets? Have they all been retrofitted
with water saving devices.
Some predictions are for a very hot summer. Might we consider some
water saving objectives from summer 2025 to summer 2026?
Note: here is what google says are the most drought tolerant vegetables
for Los Angeles:
The most drought-tolerant and heat-loving vegetables for Los Angeles
include okra, sweet potatoes, eggplants, peppers, Armenian cucumbers,
and Rattlesnake pole beans. These plants thrive in Southern California's
arid climate by developing deep root systems that seek out moisture in
dry soil.
Note: Our soils should be tested for growing any below the surface soil
foods (e.g., potatoes, yams, carrots, radish, etc.) to be sure that lead
levels are safe.
thanks.
