A different perspective on rain.

A different perspective on rain.

I grabbed a large shovel and started digging a wet spot called rain.

During rain, digging isn't easy; wet soil sticks to the shovel blade, which doesn't help us at all. Therefore, as a rule, it's better to dig a garden in dry weather; I've experienced this repeatedly.

In theory, rain should always be a joy, like a traveler in the desert, but it often becomes a nuisance if you live, for example, in the tropics or in London, and prolonged rain makes you doubt sunny days even exist.

A couple of years ago, I would have dreamed of rain over my garden, but my knowledge of how certain crops develop allows me to look at it differently and think not about rain, but about balance, so that there isn't too much rain.

I remember a saying: If you plant in the mud during the rain, you'll become a prince.

This is debatable, but folklore and science don't always intersect in the same longing; they move along a curve and have many points of intersection.

Logic dictates that plants, let's say tomatoes, which hold a lot of moisture, should love rain and overwatering. But no, excess moisture promotes the development of late blight, which grows, infects tomatoes and other nightshade crops, destroys the tops, and promotes rot in already-developing fruits.

I'm a bit like the tomato lol, a kind of Senor Tomato like in "Cipollino." I don't really like dampness, but I do like a warm rain in the middle of a hot summer, a short one, the kind you can forget about in five minutes.
