This is why we don’t see many plums each year, the birds start to peck at my plums, and then the wasps come and finish them off!

My tomatoe plants have been doing very well this year outside, but in the last few five days, with the cooler, wetter weather, it looks like all my cordon varietys have been struck by blight!

Damn it!

Oh well, there’s always next year!
