13 August 2020
The storm was violent yesterday around 6 pm
Over 40mm of rain mixed with hail.
Not all of it had time to soak into the soil, but this water is truly welcome.
As for the hail, not too much apparent damage, but we will have to remain vigilant so that it does not turn to rot just days before the harvest for the whites.
We will spray silica and an herbal tea as soon as the weather permits. Most likely tomorrow...
