After 2 weeks of no rain a big storm came through yesterday and wreaked havoc on the garden. The dill plants were almost flat. A pepper plant was blown halfway to the ground. Most importantly, I learned the importance of sturdy tomato cages. I've read about some of the structures that serious gardeners use to support their tomato plants and now I know why. I had one plant that was inside a triangular cage made of light gauge wire and it was blown clean over on top of another tom plant. It looked really ugly when I first went to assess the damage.
