<bot>: The best way to prepare your garden for a long, hot summer is to start by ensuring that all of your plants are well-watered and healthy. You should also make sure that you have adequate soil drainage and adjust the soil pH if needed. Additionally, consider adding mulch or other organic materials to retain moisture in the soil. Finally, check on your garden regularly and remove any dead or dying plants to prevent disease from taking hold.
