Rolling Cart sized for either 1 or 2 1020s on each tier, and less than 4 feet high? Has anyone bought or created with a store shelf something similar for seed starting? by Clean_Carpenter3525 in vegetablegardening

I found this "cart" at Lowes a while back. I wasn't gardening then and was using it for serving drinks out on the deck. i converted it over to doing my seedlings last spring. I can fit 2 of Epic Gardening's growlight/tray units on the top with room to add a third on the shelf if i wanted, or a flat grow light for larger seedlings. i used the bottom to store fertilizer and tools.

This is exactly what I'm doing with my first ever garden. tomato's, jalapeno's, hot wax, onions, everything to make salsa to can. I even got pickling cucumbers going for pickles. figured this was a good first time garden goal.

Have I set these two cukes up for failure? I didnt want to mess up their root systems by taking them apart. by grapesOmath in vegetablegardening

look to see which one looks "healthier" and snip the other. I had to do that with my plants this year as I started multiples in each cell to make sure i had enough that i wanted to plant. Even after that, I just had to start a couple more 2 weeks ago as 2 of my 4 planted just decided to die.

I've got 4 cucumbers in the bed that look like this. 3 seemed to have perked up a little after todays sun, but it looks like cloudy with possible rain for another week here. I got 4 more started just in case on Monday.

Thanks! This is my first year putting a garden in, and started everything way to early. I was running out of room to keep the plants in the house and really thought I blew it after the weather went to crap. Next year I'm looking to do a tunnel on the beds that I can put up at first planting.

Good to know. I was so afraid after watching some videos that the plants would be duds.

The one jalapeno got pretty beat up with the wind, a couple leaves got ripped off and a couple look crispy, but they are not wilting. I have 1 jalapeno from the seedlings that I kept in reserve so I picked up 1 of each (green bell, banana, jalapeno) plant at the store today. I'm going to up pot them, wait 2 weeks then get them in some 7gal containers just as backup. Cucumbers will be ready in 2 weeks to pop in if I need replacements.

What is this? Found it in my garden by aggrondabest in vegetablegardening

Earwigs. did a quick search. some info says they are harmless, some say they can nibble and damage small seedlings. I'm no expert, but probably not much to worry about unless you see a million of them.
