Carnage

in hail •  5 years ago 

Oh man it is just plant carnage after that hailstorm, which came back with a vengeance after I posted that it was nbd.

I posted a video on my Twitter of how loud it was: https://mobile.twitter.com/WrenTweets/status/1133352794843279360

The leaves that were strewn all over the balcony were torn up. I'm glad none of my seeds sprouted yet!

Thankfully, Emmy and the ivies are in an inside corner, under cover, so they were safe!

Even the CD case greenhouse roof and Yuan's cat grass, which are inside a wall still but by the outer ledge, took some damage. I picked up three pieces of broken roof, and Yuan's salad is a little flattened, but I think it'll live.

Springtime in Colorado!

We had a hail storm a couple years back on June 1. I ALWAYS wait to plant until after May 31. But that year I planted May 30th....

Sorry you got so much damage....

Oh man, that sucks! I myself didn't sustain any damage - but the trees outside my apartment sure did, poor things. <3

Geez! Well I'm glad it didn't cause any harm to you or major damage. Any damage is too much though.

Yeah, one of the benefits of balcony gardening is at least some protection from the elements!

That doesn't look good!
Hope you are doing okay mate

Thanks! Us and our plants are OK. I bet my NextDoor site is full of gardener mourning, though. Hope you're doing well yourself!
