The only reason my first attempt at growing a vegetable garden survived is because my husband and I worked on the project together.
Basically, I forget that plants need water to grow.
Gardening experts say vegetable gardens should be watered 2 to 3 times a week to promote healthy growth and nice deep roots. I start out doing that after I plant my garden but once you throw rain into the mix, I either accidentally over water or under water depending upon if I wait for a rainstorm.
Either it doesn’t rain enough to water the plants enough or I don’t want to take a chance on the weather forecast for rain failing me again and water the garden only to be followed by a heavy thunderstorm.
So yeah, up until now my garden fails are a result of watering too much or not enough.
