This has certainly been a wet few months. For us that means most crops have grown well and our soil never gets drainage problems as it's so sandy. However the cool temperatures and lack of sunshine have made tomatoes very late indeed, possibly as much as a month behind where we would expect them to be. But they're coming now, albeit slower than we would hope for. Weeds of course love rain and they've grown like stink. Normally after June they slow down, but not this year! The trailer was filled to over-flowing from a patch that was cleared measuring just 20 yards by 8!!
Grapes are looking good and won't be too long if we get some prolonged sunshine; meanwhile the lettuce are romping away.
