Enthused by what I read here, where users are successful in growing their own vegetables I have decided to get back growing vegetables.
I say get back because we were quite successful at one time but for reasons unknown we did not try again.
I have ordered for seeds online and they are expected to be delivered today. There are many varieties but I will just pick a few.
Wish me good luck What vegetables do you grow?

Some grow well, some don't, I wish you luck. Right now I have seeded lettuce, radishes, spicy round peppers, long red peppers, tomatoes. They are still in pots in the greenhouse, except the lettuce. I am going to move them in the garden by mid-May. Outside I have planted the potatoes and the perennial herbs (rosemary, sage, thyme, oregano, mint) stay there all the time.

I will not sow all those that you see in the pack as many will not grow here. I had no other choice. If I had selected individual seeds then that would have proved very expensive.
Most of what you have will not grow here.

I do not grow vegetables in my rental property. However growing your own food is a great way to enjoy having a supply of food in your home.

I am more concerned about birds. I have a huge garden but they will come for those tender shoots

@allknowing My garlic is well established, the spinach is just sprouting and there’s about 12 potato plants about to burst forth from the earth.

Spinach from seeds is interesting. Potatoes do not grow where we live. How much garlic do you grow?

We do not grow any vegetable, as it takes lots of time and maintenance to grow a vegetable.

That's great you can grow your own vegetables. Here we don't have the right place to do that, unfortunately. But in my another apartment I bought a device which can grow vegetables by water. Lately I planted tomatoes and hopefully I can get a little harvest at the end

@allknowing My place can only allow that. Of course having a garden is great but the real estate is crazy expensive here.

You must be talking about hydroponics. I will try that this time.

This year I only grew arugula in a container away from Luna. After we fixed a fence, Leticia is planting some seeds in the front. But the results are yet to be seen.

i mostly grow green beans, tomatoes, cucumbers and pumpkins. I can buy corn at the auction cheap so no longer plant it as it needs a lot of space.

Tomatoes grow well from such seeds. Post a picture when you get them.
