Veggie/Fruit Garden Update! I’ve had these plants for almost a month now and I’m really proud with how they’re growing with this being my first garden. But I do still have some questions: 1. My strawberry plant is the first plant in the garden to produce some type of food. It’s an everbearing variety of strawberry and I noticed the fruit a couple days ago. My main question is that I do not know if it is ready to pick or what to look for to know when it is ready to pick? 2. I planted my bell pepper plant in a large red container with no drainage holes without thinking about water collection. I ended up giving it too much water yesterday and I’m expecting more rain this week. I wanted to put it in a smaller, white container about half the red pots size that my okra were in since they unfortunately did not make it. I’m not sure if this is a good idea since it’s already grown a little, but I would like some advice. I also noticed that it started growing peppers on it today and that it had an infestation of these small, white caterpillars. I’m not sure what species they are, but I believe that they’re eating my plant’s leaves and would like a natural way to deter them from my plant. I’m a little scared to move it to a new container with the caterpillars because I don’t want it to get weakened by stress and get eaten at the same time. 3. I bought an okra plant with all my other garden plants and planted it in a small white container. I gave it full sun with my other garden plants, but I noticed them getting weaker and weaker until they died. It’s possible I overwatered them, but I’m not sure. Any advice on growing okra for next year? 4. On a plus side, my cucumber plant has grown twice as big as when it was first planted in its container. I’m especially proud of this one since I thought it wasn’t going to make it when I first planted it. 5. My cherry tomato plant has also grown exponentially since it was first planted. It started flowering yesterday so hopefully I’ll get some tomato growth soon.

    Your strawberry looks great and is probably ready to be picked. It should be firm, bright color, and a light sweet smell. If the bell peppers are not in a pot with drainage holes, you may end up with root rot if it gets too much water. I recommend adding holes or repotting it. Your tomato plant looks great. Have fun
