The results of rain


Having a lot of rain at the moment so everything is wet and sodden.  As a result we get things happening like this papaya tree falling down.  They grow so quickly that they are weak trees and as they also tend to be top heavy with papaya they are at great risk of falling down when the soil is very wet or when there is wind.

We have shored all the other papaya trees up so it doesn’t happen to them.  We have lost most of these papaya as there isn’t a big demand for green papaya. And if they haven’t started to ripen the fruit don’t ripen off the tree.
