Hello Chile Heads,
Well so far this year we have had record amounts of rain, temps well below
seasonal norms, and tonight just to top it off we had a hail storm. No
kidding, it rained 3/4 ice balls for 10 to 15 minutes. What a mess. Those
plants that are not destroyed have had any fruit that was growing beat up
pretty good. Took about two hours to clean up the pepper garden and remove
all the debris. On a good note I have several other gardens that are
sheltered better that my main garden and any peppers in pots we dragged into
the house as fast as we could. They will all survive.
Has any body else ever gone through this? I would like to know if the
plants are likely to recover? Is there anything I can do to help them?
See ya,
Rick Thompson
