Right now in the garden, I’m dealing with a few small issues that don’t look like much at first—but in a hot, humid climate like mine, they can quickly turn into bigger problems if you ignore them. From overgrown tomatoes and peppers to root-bound plants, bolting herbs, weeds, and even pest pressure, I’m going through and fixing things before they start slowing everything down. My husband is helping with pruning while I handle cleanup, up-potting, and general problem areas so we can stay ahead of the chaos and keep the garden productive. It’s not perfect, but it’s all about catching the small things early so the whole system keeps growing strong.
