Had a bad storm come through this evening with heavy wind. The patch looks sort of like a tornado went through it! At least I did not get the hail that hit about 5 miles away from me. I've got quite a few leaf stems broken over. They don't seem to be broken as much as just kinked. I would guess at least one fourth to a third loss on a couple of plants that are about 500 square feet. For any of you who have experienced this in the past how did your plant fair after that kind of damage? Hope I'm not done for the year. I've got two real good ones going.
