Hail can sometimes catch you completely unexpectedly.
It is almost impossible to insure against huge chunks of ice, which are often the size of a pigeon's egg.
However, there are a few useful life hacks that you can apply to your property to avoid losing it completely.
How to Restore a Vegetable Garden After Hail
The first task that falls on your shoulders is to remove all pieces of ice from the beds as quickly as possible. Otherwise, in addition to mechanical damage to the plants, you also risk getting hypothermia.
The next step is to carefully hill up the plantings to avoid exposing the roots.
Those plants that were hit by ice falling from the sky must be put up by yourself. After that, they must be tied to pegs so that the damaged stems become stronger.
Don't be upset if your cucumbers and tomatoes have lost their tops. The plants will still produce side shoots, from which you will get a harvest.
After such stress, plants need additional feeding with double force, for which special growth stimulants are suitable.
