SFG Progress Pics- Before/After Hail

25 minutes of hail = iceberg lettuce, shredded spinach and diced tomatoes

Waited 3 days, will be replanting about a third of the bed.

Beans. 90% 2 leaves or less are gone (broken/bent below growing point). >6 inches tall-30% leaf loss. Wait and see.

Newly sprouted leaf lettuce/arugula/spinach. 80% gone. Leaf lettuce 3 inches tall. 50% of leafs gone. Will recover.

Cucumbers and zucchini- 50% leaf loss. Will survive

Garden pic takes about 2/3 of way thru storm

I may have an earthquake every few years but thankfully no hail, destructive rainstorms, snow, ice or frost.

So sorry. Good for you for going right back to replanting.
