    Is this Septoria Leaf Spot on our Tomato Plants? Prevention and Curing Tips?

    Still trying to figure out what to do about the leaf spot... We are dealing with a widespread problem at this point with most if not every one of our over 100 tomato plants struggling with it. It seems to have gotten significantly worse after a rain last week. Any advice other than...

    Is this an Aphid, Spider Mite, or other Garden Pest on this Tomato Plant Leaf?

    When we were in the garden today we found this tiny white bug on one of our tomato plants. Does anyone know what it is? My best guesses are an aphid or spider mite. These were the best photos I was able to take with my camera (the bug was very small). P.S. There does appear to be a green aphid...

    Is this Septoria Leaf Spot on our Tomato Plants? Prevention and Curing Tips?

    Hello everyone. When we were in the garden today we noticed that some of our tomato plants have black-spotted dead leaves. I believe we're dealing with Septoria Leaf Spot. I had a lot of trouble with it at the end of the growing season last year, and resorted to just going through the rows and...

    When is it too late to plant Peas in Zone 6 for Spring Harvest?

    I was wondering until what date is it OK to direct sow peas in Zone 6 for a spring harvest? We're running a little late on our pea planting, so I was wondering if anyone in Zone 6 (or a similar zone) could share when they would say is the latest you can plant them for a springtime harvest? Thanks,

    Seed Starting

    We grew those Super Sweet 100 Tomatoes last year and loved them! They were delicious, and very crack resistant compared to some of the other cherry tomato varieties we grew.

    Seed Starting

    Thanks for the reply @BabyGotQuack . I'm not sure about germination day range, I'd have to follow up on that. Thank you for sharing your method of seed starting! Thank you for sharing your method of seed starting @TooCheep ! From reading your comment I would guess I messed up Step 2; soaking...

    Seed Starting

    We are going to start our peppers and eggplant seeds tomorrow. I've watched several videos on seed starting, but any additional tips you all might have would be appreciated. The first phase of the growing is what I seem to struggle the most with. Once the seedlings mature a little I have an...

    Seed Starting

    I plan to up-pot the healthy seedlings I have into solo cups so that they don't get dried out or crowded.

    Seed Starting

    We planted them on 2/16/23 through 2/21/23. The crops were mostly brassicas and greens. I'm not using heat mats for them because I've heard it can be a bad idea to warm the soil for cool crops such as these. Should I use one to jump start their germination and then take it off? Thank you for...

    Seed Starting

    It's nice to see a seed starting thread. I've actually been running into a few problems concerning my own indoor-sown seeds. We planted some 72 cell seed trays, placing two seeds in each cell. We are using grow lights that worked fine last year. The difference is the soil. We got natural...

    Thanks for the advice everyone! @Acre4Me , yes, as I am also in Ohio I can certainly see the importance of keeping your pepper plants completely exposed to the sunlight, in this region anyway! OK, so Basil and Tomatoes, Tomatoes and Carrots, Icicle Radish and Cucumbers, Pinto Beans and Turtle...
