Just watch those each day and top them off if they are dry to keep your roots moist until they can get inside where are the water is.
I have thought about the wind. Thank you for reminding me. I think I will have to stake it down somehow. The description says it weighs about 250 lbs when full. I am concerned that it may be a bit top-heavy. There are optional casters for it that I did not purchase. Usually wind and rain go hand in hand here, being near the coast we are on the fringes of hurricanes.
