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.

I need it for my garden
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.

Where should we go for pilgrimages? Olive Garden ? Noodles factories in China?
It is said that in Olive Garden we may find a never ending supply of bread sticks. Lead me there and I shall follow!
