Its Raining in Melbourne Finally!!!!!
 
Its finally raining. Literally pouring like a tropical thunderstorm (not as
intense and long tho). But its a welcome change.

I was over in Singapore last week - when it rains - its like a waterfall.

And has my spinach jumped out of the ground!!

Interesting to note that rain has a totally different affect on vegetables
than that of tap water

I wonder just how biologically and energetically dead tap water really is.

i suspect - fairly :-) some supplies have rather too much chlorine, etc
which might also be a problem.

some people think the wonderful effect you get from actual rain is due to
aeration on the way down, & consequently aerate their general water to try
to reproduce the effect.

there's no doubt in my mind that there is something different about rain.
when it's not raining i water with either stored dam water or stored rain
water (neither of which has additives) but it is simply not the same as
rainwater falling directly.

it's been raining cats & dogs here too!!

Let's pray that this rain will continue for the rest of the year. God knows
we need it. This is the sort of rain we used to get 20 years ago.
