I have a garden that this year just dosen't seem like it is doing well. Nothing really grew except my cucumbers, watermelon tomatoes, and some of my peas. Has anyone else have this problem? If so what are you doing to try to get it going good?

Mine isn't doing all that well this year, either. Zucchini and cucumbers are the only things that are really doing much. Beans got some kind of blight, tomatoes are just falling off the vines without ripening. The corn is late and everything else is either drooping or went to seed already. Not too much of a crop this year, but I'm trying to save all of it I can.

This is my first year planting corn and i thought that it was something that i did that was the reason why they were not blooming.. I guess i'm not the only one having problems this year! lol it must be the way the weather is.

Actually mine is not doing that well this year. The flowers are not too bad, but seem to be somewhat slow to rebloom. If the deer would quit eating my roses that might help. I have 3 tomato plants in containers and they are growing good and getting quite heavy on the cages but are only producing one or two ripe tomatoes at a time. Lots of little green ones though. Nothing seems to be bursting forth the way it used to. I think the heat and humidity level that we have had relentlesly all summer might have a lot to do with it. At least everything is still alive even if it is droopy looking. Hopefully next year will be better.

we have some tomatoes that are doing very well this year. they are being grown in pots and kept close to the house. this is working better that a garden did in the ground. too many squirrels ruined the garden.
