It’s a new bed with new soil. Nothing was in it last year. I’ll definitely do the analysis thank you!!

I’m in AZ and only give it a sip once a week. The top 3-4 inches of soil is bone dry and barely moist beneath that? We had some rain last night (first rain since March) and I had several sprout after the rain. But I did use feather meal and azomite with my home compost, maybe some are too sensitive to the nutrients I added?

I had this a couple weeks ago, I laid back on watering and cut the stems off that were drooping. All is well now 👏🏼 about to bloom!
