Monthly Gardening Discussion Thread - May ‘25

My broccoli is getting smashed by caterpillars. I don't think it'll make it to getting eaten by possums.

I'm not sure what's going on here. I'm basically just letting the pumpkins run their course to get a few ripe fruits before the cold really sets in. The aphids have been eating them alive for weeks while I've been unwell so they probably won't last much longer. Two of the in ground plants are gone, probably eaten by rats.

I haven't had the chance to actually start the compost bin but maybe when everything else is out of the way I can do that.

My corn looked like they just gave up and died. Carrot bushes look nice, thick, and green though.
