Also we are well into spring (at least in the northern hemisphere), why is this sub so dead? Gardening is praxis, even if you don't have much outdoor space you can always stick tomatoes and peppers in containers! That's how I got started.
The deer, rabbits, and rodents in my area are absolutely brutal (cursed suburbs) so I have to keep that in mind with everything I grow.
I didn't get a chance to set up a proper veggie garden this year, so I'm mixing in a few with my flower beds. Jalapenos, plum and brandywine tomatoes, pickling cucumbers, and basil.
For flowers I am trying to stick to natives or their hybrids/cultivated versions as much as possible. I sowed poppy, larkspur, calendula, marigolds, nemophila, nasturtium, and sunflowers directly in the dirt, and most of them have sprouted already, which is a pleasant surprise since it's the first time I've direct sowed and I really didn't expect much to grow.
I started columbine, catmint, coleus, cosmos, snapdragons, delphinium, lavender, milkweed, and a ton of foxglove in trays. They are all about ready to go in the ground here in 7A, except for the lavender which is slow as shit.
Ordered a ton of daffodils and alliums to plant in the fall since those never get touched by hungry animals.
Also growing some shrooms for the first time in my basement but I don't know if it counts for this sub lol
Pot. But also, I grow a lot of basil and tomatoes every year. This year I'm doing cucumbers for pickling too. Last year I had an awesome cucumber plant that was doing great until I killed it by mistake. It would grow several inches a day, which was really cool to watch.
I haven't decided what kinds of peppers I'm going to try. I always do a jalapeno, and then some kind of weird spicier pepper. Last year was thai chillies. I kinda want to try habaneros this year.
Every garden needs at least one plant like this, especially for me since I obsessively check out everything every day.
