Reference for Taanit 38:3

ירדו לצמחין אבל לא לאילן: בשלמא לצמחים ולא לאילן משכחת לה דאתא ניחא ולא אתיא רזיא לאילן ולא לצמחין דאתיא רזיא ולא אתיא ניחא

IF RAIN FALLS FOR CROPS BUT NOT FOR THE TREES. It is of course possible [for rainfall to be beneficial] for crops and not for the trees when [the rain] falls gently and not heavily; similarly, It can be beneficial for trees and not for crops when it falls heavily and not gently; similarly, it can be beneficial for both of them and yet not for cisterns, ditches and caves if it falls heavily and gently but yet not in great enough volume.
