Oh no Mikey

If the sun comes out, they might just pick themselves up? I'll cross my fingers for you.

All fingers crossed hoping when I get home later, they are all stood to attention, with bright smiles on their faces.

I'm gardening in dust.

Fingers crossed for your lettuce. I'm personally loving the rain because I seeded some bare patches and fed my grass at the weekend and its filling out nicely.

We had another five minute shower today ~ didn't do any more than dampen down the dust.
We've not had proper rain for how long? The ground is like concrete. My plants aren't suffering though ... the potato foliage was a bit wilty so I watered their roots (I've sunk upturned milk bottles in my veg plot so I water the roots not the soil).

The newly transplanted kale and squash had a drink too, but I don't water my onions or flowers at all.

Lettuces have perked up no end, I've lost a few which were broken, but the majority lifted their battered heads of the ground in yesterdays sunshine. Yay, we've had a lot of rain over the last three days, so there has been no need at all to water. With every silver lining comes a black cloud, slug and weed duties have increased 10 fold.
