I started growing things in July. It took forever to take out the old weeds and add in real soil. I& #39;m in South Florida for reference.
I started with Watermelon seeds, mustard greens and propagated scotch bonnets.
The watermelon vines sprouted so quickly
The greens had to be thinned out and the watermelon vines looked pretty good but I was only a month in.
I forgot I also had carrots coming in. Weeds plagued the garden and I didn& #39;t know how to handle it aside from just pulling them out.
The scotch bonnets have been flourishing. Watermelon vines were still doing well at this point.
Halfway through August, the peppers flowered and sprouted little buds
A couple weeks ago I got sick of all the weeds and used vinegar to kill the weeds and ended up killing the greens and one of the wm vines. The peppers are still doing good, although the leaves are burnt from DTE. Now I& #39;m starting the carrots and greens again because autumn.

In June, I got a peperomia ginny and a red prayer plant from @bloomscape because I thought it said they were easy plants. The pots were full of healthy plants and I was excited to see how long they would last before I killed them. (no pictures of the ginny)
At the end of July, I had to work outside of my house for a few weeks and bought some watering bulbs that over watered and damn near killed my plants. Only one stem was left in each pot. I moved them to the screened patio so they could get more humidity and better light.
I& #39;m growing sweet potatoes I guess. Diatomaceous earth all around because the ants are trying to eat everything
More peppers coming? I ain& #39;t touching it until they& #39;ve sprouted because I& #39;ve pulled too many blossoms off already
Lots of scotch bonnet blossoms and buds
Carrots and mustard greens. I need to thin them out but I don& #39;t have time right now.
