This week Max 26C min 10C and RAIN all 41mm of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last year 20/8 - 27/8 Max 19 Min 11 rain 12.5mm sinshine and showers all week.
The weather this week has been AWFUL until Saturday when it finally dried up and Sunday was really nice and hot. Lets hope that the improvement continues.
I have had to rip out most of the annuals in the flowerbeds as they were flattened by the torrential rain. Oh well early autumn clear up and it keeps CK busy
The knee high peas have been pulled out and the wrinkle skinned ones are still doing well. Peppers are producing well although the plants are small in comparasion to what they should be. Chillies have a few chillies developing on them but the wet weather has caused the flowers to fall off. You guessed it, Blight has struck the tomatoes
The plastic hats seem to have done their job fairly well given that I lost the potatoes to blight in June. A better year and they could be a success.
Not a great deal else going on here just waiting for the grass to dry out enough to cut/crop it. Anyone got any good recipies?
