RE: Garden Update #3 7/14/2017

Thanks for sharing the good and the bad of your garden with us. Between battling insects, disease, weather and whatever else wants to eat or kill our gardens it's a wonder it ever makes it to the kitchen table :) Or at least it seems like i'm in a constant battle to win this organic healthy food war. In the end it is so worth it though.

Thank you for reading my post and for leaving a good comment that promotes conversation. I'm still a bit in awe that people actually find the stuff I post interesting.

This is only my second year of managing the garden, so there's a lot more bad than good at this point lol Last year was an epic disaster. Dunning-Kruger effect slapped me in the face pretty hard. I took the promotion with essentially very limited garden experience, thinking that with my education I was going to have no problems and was going to deliver a spectacular garden. I fell flat on my face multiple times. It was really embarrassing. Knowing the information and actually applying it are completely different things lol I almost chose thebumblinggardener rather than mogardengirl when I created my account. Organic gardening is definitely an ongoing battle. It's amazing just how quickly problems can arise and turn into major issues resulting in significant loss of production.
