Gardening can be a relaxing and rewarding hobby, but it has its challenges. From plants that simply refuse to grow to disappointing harvests, gardening fails aren’t uncommon. You could do everything exactly right and still end up with only one edible tomato after everything is said and done.
The Mighty Harvest subreddit is a great place for gardeners to share their gardening fails. Specifically their unexpected disappointing harvest.
