Our crop is ruined !
Something has destroyed it almost entirely. All is lost.
This seems to have happened on Annalise's watch while she was on leave yesterday. I wish I had married into better farming stock. Less tolerant people might blame her.
Current status of crop
1. Aubergine - eaten off or broken 1/3 of way up stem - one small leaf remains
2. Chilli plant - 50% of leaves eaten or yellowed - looks like it will have "passed on" by the weekend.
3. Sun Flower plant - lets just say no oil will come from this plant.
4. Baby marrow - touch and go. Two stems snapped off - one remaining.
5. Red/Green pepper - we may loose this before it reveals it's true colour.
Who or what would do this ? There are no tracks and no sign of insects.
I suspect BIRDS - how i hate them.
We have no crop insurance.
Tina looked and said she thought slugs...
