RE: Hail! SW Ontario


Never had to deal with hail before...

Will the vines recover the ruined leaves, or am I basically done?

Many punctures through the leaves, especially along the fence, where I think
they may have been bouncing off and through my leaves. Smaller leaves are
fine but the big ones (12 - 18 inches) have a dozen holes a piece. I just
finished burying my vines earlier in the week, flowers are fine. The leaves
aren't shredded, and still maintain their shape. I am concerned that between
the burying stress and the hail, the leaves won't recover.

Any suggestions.

Hello,

Just had moth ball sized hail, amidst raindrops as big as robin's eggs!  No
heavy wind though...  Hmmm, that's a switch.

Gladly passing it to the east.

Regards,
Tom
