So we have some ears appearing on a significant number of the plants:
Whilst this is good news, compared to the rogue-growth in the back lawn the main crop is only around 30cm tall, versus over 70cm, and the ears are small (I'll try to produce an image directly comparing the two in due course). None of which bodes well for the flour yield I reckon, ho hum. Oh well at least I'm not alone the U.K. drought has affected many professional growers with some reported to be ploughing their cereal crops back into the ground and replanting (see here).
