We have had a few showers a total of about 1 cm the past couple of day. Certainly no days of non stop rain. Below the surface any unwatered areas are still dry as a bone Not sure how far that goes down but possibly a couple of feet. Rhubarb is coping so it must have long roots. I have some chard which is amazingly bonny. Lost an apple tree.
The small amount of rain seems to be enough to get the weeds germinating and the dandelions have put on a lot of green.
Next forecast rain, Thursday but wind from West so I will not hold my breathe, we do not get much rain from that direction the Welsh get most of it.
Been windy and sunny today so the soil will have dried out again.
Humidity high in the early hours, so many of the plant leaves with be soaking. The rhubarb and courgettes seem to be able to attract surprisingly large amounts of dew.
