Day 28. As im sure all you of out there in the uk will agree the weather for this june has been a bit dissapointing. Ha, understatement of the year, infact i think this is the worst june for a long time, lukily im not the the mass flooding ares of england but the weather is still well below expected. I think in the last week i would estimate about 45-60 hours of sunshine over this 7-day period. Having been near enough the case since i started almost a month ago i really think the plants are struggling to develop as well as they could be. The location is good well secluded, surrounded, but not covered by bush and scrub, with sunlight at pretty much any time of the day having direct path to my plants. Im just wondering when the weather is going to start changing for the good, anyone know where i can get a long-term forecast or better yet does anyone know of the forthcoming weather patterns??????? My one silver lining from this is that if my plants can survive this struggle in the early stage of their lives mabye they will become more resilliant later on as autumn arrives.

p.s

You will notice on one of the plants it is missing a large leaf on the left side, this was accidently broken off earlier in life, i can see tiny new leaves but will it ever return completely or will it be like a deformity???

also i would appreciate if anyother uk growers can tell me how they are fairing through this time of poor weather. cheerz
