Not all days are rosy in the garden, some days it’s a mix of sunshine and clouds. This week we celebrate the clouds (pests, failures) as much as the sunshine (successes and progress). If you’re feeling defeated, don’t give up. Gardening is about learning from failure more often than not. Dust off and try again. We’re in this together. Here’s some inspiration from our own successes and failures.
I love seeing all your pictures of plants that are “happening “ in your garden now. Surprises are always fun too! Thanks!
I am beginning to harvest my garlic for the first time this year! What joy they give me after waiting so long , to see how big they are. Now I wait some more as the garlic needs to cure.
I do like growing something that can last longer than a week . This garlic harvest should last many months .
On another side, my onions bulbs are still small . So I am told that they are probably not the right onions for where I live!! So why are they selling them?
Hi Jeanne, it’s frustrating to see long day onions for sale in short day onion locations (and I imagine vice versa). I usually grow my onions from seed because nurseries rarely carry the right kind for my growing zone. Let the onions hang out over summer. They may end up bulbing up in the end. Good luck! And glad you like the photos.
