My vege garden was doing great , until I went up to Airle Beach for a fortnight over New Year . I had two people lined up to water for me while I was away - the first week there was a little bit of rain and my sister watered as was required - but when she went away , my niece was supposed to take over . She forgot ! We had that extreme heatwave and my garden had no water for a week ! Everything was seriously sunburned , even the carrots had no leaves on them .... I even thought that I should have found some popcorn under my corn stalks , but I guess the birds cleaned that mess up for me ! I'm still working on repairs !
