Just my midwest eyeball report.

Things didn’t really start to grow until late June. My tomatoes were no bigger than when I planted then in early may until the growth in late June. Now they are 3-4 weeks behind in maturity.

The fields that got planted and were not destroyed are now looking very good, but they to are 3-4 weeks behind maturity. Still plenty of moisture, but, when crops “rush” to mature, yields will be lower.

Thanks for your report. How much reduction in harvest do you expect regarding your crops? 10%? Or more?
