RE: Harvesting 15kg of apples!
Thanks! I have no idea about the cultivar of the apple to be honest, but I don't think they are Golden Delicious. They are actually a lot more green in real life than on the photos, which probably got affected by the indoor lighting. I would guess that they might be Idared or something like that.
And yeah, the heat wave really helped us out up here, but it brought a lot of problems as well. For us gardeners who enjoy "exotic" fruits, it was nice. For farmers who grow wheat, rye and other grains, it was devastating. A lot of farmers apparently had to put down a lot of animals because they could not grow enough food for them :(
Oh man, that is just so sad :( But it happened here too... We also had many rivers, ponds and lakes dried up, resulting in death of thousands of tons of fish... this summer was really cruel.
That's terrible. Things have luckily gotten a bit better here now, with normal amounts of rain again, so at least the worst part seem to be over. Let's hope next year will be better for the animals.
