I planted a vegetable garden and it is not growing, it seems stunted. I wanted to know if there are any other complaints about this this summer. Thank you!

Expert Response

I'm sorry about your presumed failure. There are a dozen reasons why your garden did not thrive: improper soil preparation, incorrect or lack of fertilizer, poor choices of which vegetables to grow ( for example, asparagus does not usually produce well here), too much or too little water, pests and /or disease; and so forth. Choose  some good examples of which plants did not grow to your expectations and what did you notice was lacking in them. Then send us your questions with those details and we'll see if we can help you to avoid problems next season.
