Put them in the fridge until the worst of this heat is over.

seriously, lay them down flat first to straighten then, then fridge/freezer as suggested.



then try putting them in a vase fairly full of water if you still want to use them in the heat.

Richard....press-ups in the cucumber patch. It's an old one I know.

Did you hear the one about the drunk walking down the pavement, two nuns approached and one walked either side....."how the heck did she do that?" he said
