‘Failed Harvest’: People Are Sharing What They Failed To Grow In 30 Funny Pics
Ask anyone who grows their own food and they'll tell you it's worth it. Not only do fresh, home-grown fruits and vegetables taste best and often are more nutritious than the ones sitting in a grocery store, but the pride and satisfaction that come from harvesting the fruits of your labor are also simply priceless.
However, getting there can be challenging. Especially if you're a newbie. After all, there's plenty you need to learn about the crop, nature keeps throwing you curveballs, and some pesky little creature is constantly trying to rob you.
So when someone fails at their first harvest, often the only thing left for them to do is... have a laugh about it on the Internet and try again next year.

So when I purchased my super dwarf Tangerine. I was told that the tangerines themselves would be normal size. I guess I fotgot to ask, compared to what? Despite its size, it still peels, tastes and wedges just like a normal tangerine. But hey, Indiana grown citrus

That's a real talent you got here! I could barely peel a "normal" sized tangerine without squishing half of it! Kudos!

When you grow your own carrots but harvest micro-carrots 4 months later.

At least your carrot seeds were carrots. My mom planted what she thought were colorful carrots, but they turned out to be flowers.

A lot better than mine. I watered this bucket on my balcony for over three months, and later noticed that I had forgotten to plant the actual potatoe. So I was just watering soil for 3 months..

As a long time vegetable gardener I can relate to this. If I have a good crop it's due to my skill, hard work, green thumb, etc. If it fails it's due to the weather, insects, disease, etc. It is never ever my fault.

Never thought I would call fruits and vegetables cute but today is the day, they are cute.

I wish I had a backyard so I could try and plant some veggies, but all I have is some Hungarian paprika peppers in a pot. It gave me a handful of peppers, I'm not complaining, but they're HOT and I can't eat all of them, so I don't know what to do with them. Any ideas?

Powder them and blow them in the face of your enemies
