Rain at last??/When to start watering

Finally does anyone have any good ideas about the best way to water
dormant pots that are completely dry?

hi Jane

It's very easy. Just add a few drops of washing up liquid to the watering
can of water. This makes the water 'wetter' and it soaks into the compost
and soil quicker. It's the same action as washing up liquid getting at dried
on food. DONT buy wetting agents as they cost a lot and just clear liquid
soap.
