Lots of things can go wrong in a garden, including overfertilizing and overwatering, as the previous answerer stated.
You need to get your soil tested, to find out the pH and the amount of essential nutrients available. Check at stores that sell gardening supplies and they should be able to tell you how to get a test run. Here in Tennessee, the Univ. Of Tennessee has regional labs that handle it for about $ 6. It’s a bit late to help you out this summer, of course.
Plants don’t need watering every night. A good soaking once or twice a week is actually better for the plants.
Keep trying — gardening is a fun activity and you’ll have success sooner or later.

Any place that sells garden supplies. It is a very popular form of fertilizer, Home Depot has it, but I’m gonna have to recommend your local garden supplier.

Richard asks…
Good sources for seeds for a edible home garden?
After reading Scocasso !’s comment, I’m really inspired to get a edible garden on my own. My parents used to have a small edible homegrown garden when we were growing up and I remember it was really enjoyable to grow you own food.
So does anyone know any good online or catalogue source where I can buy seeds for vegetable and fruits? Or perhaps any tip on finding a local garden supplier?
Thanks a lot.

Which group of words will make the fragment into a sentence?

GardenersCardiff answers:
I think it would be A. Can be found. As in: Kentucky Winder beans in can be found in most seed catalogs. This answer gives the sentence a verb, a part of speech needed to form a complete sentence.

Where is a good place to buy seeds in South Carolina?
I’m looking to start a vegetable garden and I don’t know where to get good seeds. I know there are all kinds of places to get seeds, but I want GOOD heirloom ones that will grow well in my area. I would like to have a catalog to look at and order from. Any suggestions? Thanks!
GardenersCardiff answers:
Burpee sells great quality seeds and they have a HUGE online catalog as well as a smaller paper catalog. Burpee has also recently started selling their seeds at walmart, the selection is obviously much more limited there but hey, theyre great quality and you can get a few packets of seeds locally. Lots of farmers use burpee.
