Another few drops last night. Again better than nothing but it has been 9 days since the last lot. Even the sun flowers have been dropping. Unwatered soil dry down a good foot plus and 1/4 inch will not do much to correct that. Even the sweet corn needs watering. No runners on the strawberries.
Seems odd that in Scotland you are having floods. We have had so little rain since February. If this lasts through the winter we will have serious water shortages next year.
The trees are beginning to shed their leaves, it is like autumn.
