We got at least 3 maybe 4 inches of rain yesterday.
Garden survived most of it, although I left some trays of starts out to harden off and the rain was so hard it just clobbered them. So may have lost most of a tray of basil and some cabbages and greens.
Smaller injuries: pest cover on the eggplant got pulled up. Plants were OK, but I bet the flea beetles were happy. 😒
Some spots where compost mulch ran off the beds into the paths.
And a wheelbarrow of compost got knocked over.
But honestly that's all pretty mild considering how hard that rain was. I'll take it.

I'm more mad about the birds that have been yanking up some of my transplants lately! Four or five marigolds, several beets and greens, a cabbage. Not sure what to do other than make sure I pack them in firm and water them in real good.
