My attempts at growing an organic vegetable garden. I have been trying too hard and succeeding less and less. Most people would have quit by now. My garden makes me frustrated and brings me no joy so far-- but I'm going to figure it out. I welcome suggestions and explanations, or just come along for the ride!

Today
About a week ago I dug out the entire garden bed that was doing the very worst. Nothing was growing. It was completely stunted and very depressing. I dug it all out. I dug out a bunch of added stuff mostly on the right hand side and tried to get down to the original dirt. There were lots of roots, I think either alfalfa or most likely scrub oak, no worms. The kids played in it for about a week and today I cultivated it and spread out a bunch of alfalfa pellets. Not being able to find the sprayer, I just covered it with plastic to keep out the critters and to heat it up good and make the pellets dissolve.
