We have hot, muggy summers here. (yuck.) I've read that the soil inside pots can get to 120 F, and roots and plants can die in those temps.
I was wondering if anyone had tried covering the outside of their pots in aluminum foil? Wouldn't that cut down the heat through reflection of sunlight?
Trying to keep an open mind here, and anticipate summer problems. :-)
