30 Times People Attempted To Grow Their Own Food, But The Results Were Hilariously Disappointing
In times of the worldwide pandemic, many people turned to urban gardening, which, in times of crisis, became something that promotes fun, well-being, and environmental protection. People started buying plants in bulk while millennials saw it as a way to deal with their mental health and find some inner piece.
Some people didn’t just stop with plants. Growing something nutritious and tasty became another trend with more and more backyards and balconies turned into little lands for harvesting.
Tomatoes, peppers, apples… nothing seemed impossible. Until you actually started growing them. Turns out, the reality of what you harvest does not always meet the expectations that you planted and when it doesn't, it most likely ends up on this corner of Reddit known as “Mighty Harvest.”
Below we wrapped up some of the funniest gardening and harvesting fails!

I Saved Watermelon Seeds From Last Year And Grew My Own Watermelons!

My Corn (1) Is Doing Great

I've grown corn before and you need at least 16 plants in a grid 4 x 4 because they pollinate one another and if they're not close together, they cannot pollinate. Try it again next year.

Very Large Harvest. Very Small Dog

Wild strawberries are always tiny, lots of flavour but quite sharp, I have it in a pot because it looks beautiful when flowering! I leave the fruit for the birds - not that I have a choice, in this case the early birds really get the worm, or the strawberries!

Strawberries grow like crazy. I don’t know how you didn’t succeed at growing more!! we just threw out some like strawberry tops in the garden, one time and had strawberries for years! They were never as big as the store bought ones though.
Naomie Moore 2 years ago
Oh my! I live in a place with inhospitable summers. At my old house I still have a strawberry patch going and it's over 30 years old. Over time the different varieties have commingled and are small to medium size and very sweet! At my current home I have a 20 year old strawberry patch. However I have less space and have hundreds of resident lizards and they get most of them. I don't mind, they keep the rest of my yard in decent shape. Raccoons, possums, mice and other creatures of the night snack on them too. Also have fig trees - so I have provided a buffet for them. My neighbors also grow various fruits and vegetables and we harvest what we can while sharing with the local wildlife.
If you have noticed more and more young people getting into gardening recently, you’re not the only one. In fact, savvy millennials who want to know where the food on their plate is coming from have set a new ‘grow your own’ trend.
In Ireland, for example, a study that looked into the trend of buying herbs, fruit and vegetables for planting found that the market boomed to €19 million in 2019. Meanwhile, the horticultural market in Ireland is worth €795m according to the 2018 figures, compared to €729m in 2016 and €516m in 2011.

I am not certain but the upper branches look a bit like fire blight. I have a wonderful pear tree I have been trying to save for several years that has blight and it's production has dropped off drastically. I have planted a replacement of a resistant variety as I fear I am going to leave sr the original but an infected tree can scrape along for a surprisingly long time.

With These Peppers, I Shall Spice A Thousand Dishes!
DC 2 years ago
Is it? I'm not sure how to identify the specific kinds of peppers and chilis, but these, as far as my knowledge carries, may very well be dwarfed bell peppers. But then again, when I had habaneros on my balcony, they looked like those, were about the same size and colour, and tasted wonderful. I didn't even buy seeds, but collected them from any chilis I bought fresh, got them mixed up by ... they were all in seperate little trays, that was in a box, I carried said box and then the cat is dropped into the equation by making me stumble and get them all mixed up. Bell peppers, Habaneros and some 3 to 7 other kinds ... I decided to have a mystery plant every year until they're all finished. Still aren't, but I skipped a few years due to working elsewhere and on the 2 days at home, just not being into gardening that much...

I am fully submitted to the notion that the banana 🍌 is simply and understanding between America and the rest of the world as far as measurements go. Yes, I'm American (both parents born and raised in Poland) and I fully support it.
The same tendency is observed in other countries around the globe. The 2021 National Gardening Association study showed that the Covid pandemic created 18.3 million new gardeners in the US, most of whom are millennials. Results found that gardening activities raised significantly at every garden experience level.
Experts believe that the millennial love for gardening is tied to movements of self-care and wellness. Since many young people don’t have access to an outdoor space as the majority of working millennials live in urban spaces, bringing plants, fruits and veggies inside seems like an appealing solution.

This happened to every carrot I planted last year. I was so disappointed. I made the mistake of planting them in a planter box that wasn't deep enough. This year I'll plant them directly into the ground.
But if you've ever tried indoor gardening yourself, you know it’s not as easy as it looks. The harvest comes down to the tiniest details–from sun to humidity and just the right amount of shade. So it’s best to start from growing something simple, like herbs.
The experts at MiracleGro remind gardening aficionados to harvest often to encourage bushy growth. For herbs like mint, basil, cilantro, and dill, snip a few inches from the top of each stem, cutting right above a set of leaves. You can also harvest full stems from the outside of the plant by cutting a half-inch above the plant’s base.
Meanwhile, for herbs like oregano, parsley, sage, and thyme, choose long stems with few leaves. Snip chives at the base of the plant, about an inch above the soil. With sage and mint, you can also skip the cutting and simply pinch off individual leaves.

I think the problem came from the cover of the soil... It looks like pine's needles ans young branches which are known to acidify the soil. In small amount it is not a problem but layered like that ? A-Ouch..... I know tomatoes usually like acidic soil but even them have their limits. Also as the needles decompose reaaaaaally slowly, the ground beneath tends to lake nutriments...

LOL, growing up, we had this little patch to the side of our backyard patio. It was maybe 4'x2' and was literally just weeds, but somehow my mother had tomatoes every year. The woman basically threw seeds back there and they just kept growing every year. In 17 years I don't think I ever saw her actually tending to it.

Pollination problems. Corn needs to be grown in clumps, rather than rows. It's pollinated by wind, so you have to make sure the spot isn't too sheltered as well.

JFC! What seeds cost that much? Many people in end up with those when they just let a jack o lantern 🎃 rot and forget about it in the yard and get surprise pumpkins the next year, because a seed or ten are always missed. The rotting pumpkin actually becomes the rich compost for the seeds, so they grow without effort.

Ah, I see the issue with the zucchinis. They haven't been pollinated properly. It's something one can do themselves, the plants has got male flowers as well as female flowers. Just get some pollen with a Q-tip from a male flower (flower is on a thin stem, will only bloom on one morning for several hours) and rub it on the inside of a female flowers (they have mini zucchinis as a stem, like the harvest on the pictures). Once properly pollinated, they grow and grow. My heaviest was about 1,7kg.

If you're not getting like one zucchini every day or so, you should give up gardening. They're pretty much the easiest thing to grow in the world and produce through disease, poor soil, lack of nutrients/water, and most other neglect. And green bell peppers are a waste of time and space if you don't have a big garden considering they take 9 months to grow and are 99 cents at the store.

Mickysixxx 2 years ago (edited)
That bush is gonna struggle lol although I can see a couple of buds. If you cut the chilli off the leaves will grow (maybe, chillies are pretty hardy) cut any flowers off so the bush puts all its energy into growing branches and leaves. And water properly, make sure all the soil is soaked not just the surface or that the water is just running down the side of the pot instead of soaking in.
Dynein 2 years ago
Yeah, doesn't look like it's been watered properly - the soil looks dry - and in this corner it probably doesn't get much sun, either. Chilies need tons of both! Water daily and put into full sunlight and it'll thrive. Don't and... well, it'll be like this. Plants have preferred environments, just like animals. You wouldn't put a cat into an aquarium and expect it to thrive, would you?

Alice Parsons 2 years ago
It's not as easy to grow things as many people seem to think it is. A lot can go wrong. Improper growing environments can cause most of this. Things like soil, the size of the growing area, light, water, insects, and even humidity (or lack thereof) all contribute. Also, if you're trying to grow fruits and vegetables using seeds out of most store-bought produce and expecting it to do well at all, you're setting up for a let-down. Quite a bit of our produce is grown using parented seeds and growing techniques. Much of it is sterile, so it won't ever grow for you. Commercial growers want us to keep buying these items from them, not growing them at home. You're much better off spending a little bit or making a gardening buddy to trade seeds and plants with.
