Hi everyone! I’m an aspiring apartment gardener. I’ve taken care of a few pothos & succulents, but never herbs or vegetables. I am going to be moving into an apartment soon, and I was wondering if anyone had tips or knows what edible plants work best for apartments! I’m open to learn all I can, and any advice would be appreciated. Thank you! 🌱
Hi all, newbie here! Wanting advice on trimming- i’ve never rly been able to keep plants alive so i’m super nervous here. the app is recommending i cut back “suckers” from my tomato plant. just wondering if there’s any in particular i should be looking for, and what is a good visual to help decide what stays and what goes? TIA!!!
First Tomatoes!
Can anyone tell me why my potted tomato plant is shriveling up its leaves and not growing much? He has some fruit but the plant itself isn’t progressing much. We’ve had lots of intense storms and rain this past week so I’m not sure if that’s it.
Hii everybody! It’s actually my first time posting here, so I’m a bit nervous! Anyways, I have this basil plant (it’s not in my Planta thing) that I’ve had for ~2 months. I’ve been watering it nearly every day (unless I forget!) and it’s been pretty healthy. There’s just one thing- one by one, my basil stalks keep dying. I’m pretty sure it’s not a watering problem, but I’m concerned a little. 🙁 Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!!
Hi, I am new here and especially to growing edible fruits/veggies. I am trying to grow a sweet southern cherry tree in a wine barrel and haven't had any fruiting. The first year it had some blooms (very few) but not any fruit. During the winter, I brought it inside and kept it from the below 30s temperature putting it back outside when it was warmer. It has a tons of green leaves on it now but hasn't bloomed or anything. I've checked the soil pH and it seems to be at 6.5 which is recommended. Any suggestions?

I was given this sweet potato in a jar. The water was dirty, the plant was covered in aphids, and it needed some pruning. However, after potting it, cleaning it, giving it real sunlight, and consistent watering it was exploded with leaves. I would love for it to make long vines! Any more tips?
Outdoor setup, (for now) waiting for my tomatillo seedlings to mature a bit before planting in my raised bed, what do you think? First time gardener in my first home ❤️ got a little bit of everything 🪴
I’m so excited because my avocado has its first leaves after transplanting.
I’ve got cucumbers!! There are two more starting to grow as well! 🥒
Okay guys!!!! Wish me luck on my Avocado tree 🤩🥹🥑🌴
I grew my first blueberries yesterday!!! 😁🤩💙🫐
Biggest cucumber harvest yet😝
How cooked is this tomato plant; could I still transfer it to a bigger pot? A family member bought this tomato plant (Mr. Stripey is what the label says) back in April. I didn’t have a large enough pot at the time and its current one was all I could get. I’ve got this larger pot now and was wondering if I could transfer it and maybe get tomatoes.
Trying to keep the Irish rain off my tumbler tomatoes so made a makeshift shelter 🤣. It isn’t really big enough to cover it all, but I ordered a ‘pop-up’ cover that wasn’t wide enough either & couldn’t keep it because the little tomatoes, flowers & leaves were getting totally squashed 🥴 I’ll try to get a clear golf-sized umbrella which might work better 🤞
View on my porch! My herb garden is doing really well this year, fingers crossed it continues to thrive
My lettuce is getting big
First Picture is my sad cucumber plant I saved from walmart when I bought her. I didn’t think she was going to make it! Second Picture is her now 🥹 She was only transplanted once from the decrepit plastic planter she was in to this big pot she is flourishing in with her first vines coming in 🥹
Our first tomato has this black spot. What does it mean? Am I doing something wrong? I’ve never grown tomatoes before.
