I’ve had a decently successful vegetable garden for the last 3 or so years. Successfully grew zucchini, tomatoes, peppers, and herbs. I’m by no means an expert but I’m at a loss this year.
This winter/early spring I failed 2 different rounds of seed starting so I finally gave in and bought plants from the store: better boy tomato, 2x cherry tomato, 2x bell peppers, jalapeño pepper, zucchini, thyme, and basil.
All are plants I have successfully grown in current garden beds previously.
I added fresh raised bed soil ( Carolina gold) to the beds and planted the store bought plants.
Pictures show the wilting of all but the zucchini and better boy tomato. What happened? Bad batch of soil? Crappy starter plants? Am I doomed to have no garden this year and need to just try again next year?
I’m at a complete loss and my garden is one of the things I love to tend and work on all summer.
A few days after planting my puppy decided to dig out the Thyme and basil from my tiered bed so j know what happened to them. Puppy tax is included.
