I was just looking at the US drought monitor and was noticing
the UP is abnormally dry. I have read about the fires there
earlier this summer. I know the drought we have had here
has caused the strawberries to be alot smaller, there were
less to pick, and they finished sooner than a normal summer.
The trees are also affected, as some varieties are losing
leaves already. My question is...Has your dry summer had a
similar effect on your blueberries/strawberries and are your
trees changing early or losing leaves early?
