I posted a photo of some of the varieties that are doing well. Grinch cherry, Banjan Rumi and most of the cherries.
Just seems like it's the nature of the beast. You never know from one season to the next what Mother Nature will do. A couple of years back it was non-stop rain. Lost most of my crop to Early Blight. Still, in spite of the challenges of weather, I wouldn't change what I do for anything. When I lose a tomato plant I really mourn for it. The same way I celebrate the ones that hold strong and come thru. I am so emotionally invested in these tomatoes that I feel pain or joy according to what they do. I know this would sound silly to anyone that doesn't have a passion for growing but I know most of you feel what I'm saying.
On a side note, I entered a national tomato contest. (fingers crossed). I will post the photo after the results are posted...win or lose. Wish me luck.
I hope most of you are enjoying a great season with few problems!!! Stay tuned..........

We're having drought too though I can't irrigate out of fear of running my well dry and because my gardens very large. The forest is starting to suffer. Anyhow, I've heard in Europe they are being inundated. Your tomatoes look lovely!
I'm scared to death of running my well dry! Yes, in France, it is raining non stop. Go figure.
it's NOT raining everywhere in france, at least not here :-) it's just raining enough (a soft little 15mn each 2 days at night) for we don't have to water the garden, perrrrrfect :-)
I heard you are finally getting some rain Arcadia! Yea!!!
