My wife and I are starting a garden for the first time this year. We originally were just planning to do transplants for everything, but a family member gifted us some of her favorite seeds and we've had some luck germinating them! Work is busy so we are not babysitting them as much as we should, but excited to see what makes it.

@DLS good luck!
I am gardening for almost 15 years. And every year some of the things just won't grow. And one year I killed a batch of 100 peppers.

And then I try stuff very lazily and it works.

I started nominating a surprise winner and the epic fail of every year...

I wish you best luck and joy with your garden. And a bit of patience.

Exactly, no matter how great you are or how right you do stuff, there will always be something that fails. I used to really not like that part of gardening until I learned to accept that.
