Question: how much water does a garden use?
Answer: For vegetables in the summer, we recommend applying about 1 inch of water over the surface area of the garden bed per week. That is equivalent to 0.623 gallons per sq ft. Using that rate, a 32 sq ft bed requires 20 gallons of water per week. (32 sq ft x 0.623 gallons per sq ft = 20 gallons per week).
