Top 4 causes and how to fix it
Every year we as gardeners breathe the whole growing season. Seriously, we do. Think for a moment. We wait patiently for spring, fingers crossed, hoping our seeds will come. Did we plant them too soon? Are we too late? Do they get enough sunlight?
Want to see it? Horticulture is a high-quality industry!
Even waiting for good things keeps us on our toes. Is it a flower? Yes, pepper is coming! Green tomatoes! We will be eating salsa soon, dear. What are we going to do with all of this zucchini? I can no longer see the kitchen counter! But the real suspense shows up in the form of garden problems. In the end, it is not uncommon to lose one plant here and there or the entire crop.
1. Excess water
Yes, you may be wondering how often this is a problem. Excess water is often the culprit in the case of new gardeners. They break the pipe and water at the first sign of withering or yellowing leaves without first checking the soil moisture. In some cases, the leaves turn yellow and wither, which may indicate root rot from too little water. Too much water can easily lead to a dying garden.
Or they may inadvertently pour water. I have often told friends that a watering schedule is important if you have a garden or houseplant. Check your plants periodically when they need water throughout the week. But the key here is in word verification. Check the soil before you reach the water.
One of the best ways to avoid over-irrigation is to test the soil around your garden. Dig a couple of inches with your hands and dig up a handful of soil. Squeeze it into a ball. If it keeps its shape without turning your hands into the mud, you will get enough moisture. If it decomposes, the soil is too dry.
2. Not enough water
There is not enough water on the other side of the water coin. Nothing in the garden dies more quickly than not having enough water. Plants need water to help process nutrients in the soil and to grow and produce fruit. If you do not have enough water for your garden, the plants will slowly start to close. It usually starts at the base of the plant, where you can see yellow, brown, or crunchy dry leaves.
Problem fixing
Remember, the best way to determine if your soil needs moisture is not just to get your hands dirty and look at the plants. For strong, drought-resistant plants, you should do a thorough soaking rather than a mild watering. When you water the plants deeply, they extend their roots deep into the ground to access the deeper ground moisture.
3. Feed me, Seymour!
Does anyone else quote "Little Shop of Horrors" when they fertilize their plants?
I'm the worst of them all. I fertilize to start my garden better at the beginning of the season. Then summer starts, I get busy, and all of a sudden I wonder why everything is stagnant, or worse my whole garden is dying. Yes, maybe I have not bothered to feed my plants for a while.

Problem fixing
It’s time to feed your vegetables! When you feed beyond those early spring feeds, it is important to choose the right fertilizer mix for each plant. Whether a plant is growing or producing fruit requires a change in nutrition. When tomatoes need a good nitrogen boost in the spring, give them more nitrogen in the middle of the season and you will end up with beautiful leaves and very little fruit.
Pre-season preparation
One of the best ways to help your plants increase their availability of nutrients is to use mycorrhizae in your garden. These beneficial fungi increase the root zone of your plant and make it easier for them to absorb nutrients. Mycorrhizae also secrete enzymes, which help soil nutrients to become more viable (easier to digest) for plants. I got the best results using Big Food Organic Mycorrhiza Fungi Water-In Concentrate. Over-dress your plants with worm molds or compost throughout the season. Both of these will slowly release nutrients to your plants.
4. Regular maintenance prevents a dying garden
Look, I understood; Summers are crazy. Short Holidays, Calendar No other extension in the RIL fills up fast. So, it is easy to leave regular gardening work to you. But these simple tasks add healthy and high pest and disease resistant plants for a long time. Not to mention that good public care leads to better yields. If your whole garden looks like good days, you might as well leave it at that. The weeds are getting out of hand a little bit, and that zucchini is clearly world-dominated. Don't worry, it's up to you. Take your gardening gloves, your pruning shears, and a bucket.
Fixing the Issue
Prune
Just like you, your plants need a decent haircut to maintain the best look. Regular pruning of your plants encourages them to transfer their energy into the yolk You need so much - more vegetables, herbs, and flowers. Most gardeners avoid this and allow their plants to move into the wild. If you cut back on more interesting plants, it encourages them to expend their energy in producing fruit.
