Is this a fungus on my tomato leaves?

I need help. I planted some seeds two weeks ago in a nursery container that allows me to put water in the bottom so the dirt can soak it up but once the dirt is damp I throw the extra water out. I have been using a heat pad to help ferment them faster but now the dirt has off white stuff on top and no sprouting. I don’t have access to sunlight so I didn’t put a lamp as the heat pad gave instructions not to do so as it will dry out the seed. What do I do?

Help! So I planted these about 3 weeks ago and now they’re all practically dead. They don’t look like this photo .. all the flowers fell off and now look light green or yellowish. Or are they? I’m not sure but any suggestions would be appreciated.

I need some help I’m new to gardening! I have had some beautiful pumpkin and squash growing then a hail storm hit. Now my plants are beat up! Do I need to prune them back or do I let them be and let them come back themselves? The photos are before and after the hail! This is my first garden that has actually done well and now this happened! I am devastated! TIA!!

Identifying help please Hello everyone! I am in Alberta Canada. I just spent hours in my flower bed getting it ready for spring. I found this ‘weed’, first time ever, in my flower bed. It has spread shockingly amazing fast. Not sure if it came from my lawn to flower bed or vice versa. It could’ve been a hitchhiker from a new plant from last year. I pulled more than an ice cream bucket full of the roots in a small 15’ section. I still have more to pull. This is new growth, so cannot tell if leaves are prickly. Doesn’t grow in clumps, yet, like lamb ears. You can see from the picture, the roots are basically horizontal and 1 to 4 inches deep. Very similar to quackgrass or invasive Bellflower (I’ve had) root system. Google and plant ID apps have not been successful identifying. Thought it could be wild lettuce (l candenasis(?)) except the roots aren’t milky or scent when broken. Golden rod? Maybe too young to tell? The root system is throwing me off. Stumped. Ideas as to what it is? Thanks in advance! 😊

Hi everyone! I am in dire need of advice for the boxwood shrubs in my front yard! They are about ten years old. At the beginning of the season, they were a pale green, but as the weeks went by, they turned yellow and dry. It has been rainy and wet this spring, so I suspect overwatering. Any advice is appreciated! I’m very upset about this potential loss.

Any advice on what to do when it rains a lot and you have your herb box outside? I have a wooden tiered planter box with holes in the bottom but it’s been raining a lot recently. I have rosemary and other herbs plus a tomato plant that I don’t want to be overwatered!! Moving it indoors is not an option.

Jade

Anybody have an idea on what this is? South Florida if that helps at all

New rookie gardener here- I found this in the soil of my rosemary box. Should I be concerned? (It rained today) Also I’ve been seeing some small holes appear in my basil, any suggestions on what to do there?!

Okay so hi guys, this is my first time growing pumpkins so maybe this is normal. But I am growing two separate containers of them. One is completely normal looking, but one just grew this brown powdery mold all over it overnight. No clue where it came from or what it is. Any help would be lovely. Should I just dump it? Is there a cure? Will it kill me lol? I literally have no clue. Thanks in advance.🖤

I have the lighter green creeping juniper throughout my front garden and we tried to match for the side garden but they aren’t the same. Does anyone know what the big lighter green one is specifically (I added close up and further out of the one I like) They’re in the same family but definitely different and we want more of the one. Thanks in advance!!

Does anyone know of a vigorous ground cover that can be grown in indirect light/shade? I would like to replace the grass (what’s left) with a hearty plant 😊

Katherine

Suggestions for what to plant in my tiered herb planter box with rosemary? I have mint, thyme, oregano, and basil already.
