Ever see the movie Overboard, where Goldie Hawn just walks around in a daze speaking babble? That was me, repeatedly saying " ugh, ohgh, ack, oh noooo" while I assessed the garden.
If you look closely you can see where the hail actually ripped holes right through the Agribon fabric, then managed to rip through the plastic mulch too. The broccoli and greens were shredded - they look like prepped slaw. About 20% of the tomatoes were damaged, and the heirloom varieties in the lower garden were creamed. Sad, sad, sad.
Time to see how it all fares, then replant.
Is that what they call Farmers luck ?
ReplyDeleteHail in June is tragedy.
