Wow that sucks Raven. Think most of that will bounce back?

Don't give up man. Those of us without green thumbs look up to you guys who have some clue what your doing. When I get mad I crank up my weedeater and clear everything. My mother is still made at the whole "Holly Hawk episode" in the late 80's. I swear I thought they were big, blossoming weeds!!!!!

Talking pea stems

quote=justplugit;504173]Oh man Rav, looks like a geen wave. How did the stems hold up?[/quote]

the stems are tubular so when they get bent your all done producing on that one vine...

and that is why i over plant them knowing full well that a storm will decimate the crop in a single day...

i am picking all day and i won't even dent them !!

oh looky what i found

I got caught in one of the most violent thunderstorms i have ever been in. The hail was huge! I pulled over as I thought my windshield was going to break!!

No boat, back in the suds.
