    is this mouse damage or pests? (tomatillo plant)

    i have these mice, that i'm trying to kill, that are making paths under the mulch, i'm suspecting they are eating some of my plants, earlier i had a missing sunflower (when it was little) now, i have a dying pineapple tomatillo plant next to a suspicious hole leading under the mulch.

    Toddlers and peppers/hot stuff...

(plus i also nursed them and i always ate hot and spicy foods, that may have something to do with them being used to it...

    blossom end rot, what's normal?

    well, i will admit, it could be over watering, as due to this drought i'm over zealous to keep my plants alive, i've also got a nice thick layer of mulch and i put the hose right under it to make sure none of the water gets "wasted" sitting on top evaporating.. i'll cut back on some watering and...

    blossom end rot, what's normal?

    i added composted manure about 2 weeks before i planted. i also did a cheapy 4 dollar ph test and did attempt to amend but then never got around to checking again. and one of my plants is getting sun scald, which i'm trying to remember to place a lawn chair to block the late afternoon sun, when...
