I'm curious to know what fruits or vegetables you've found to be the hardest to cultivate. Are there any that have given you particular trouble?

A lot of people seem to struggle with brassicas. They can be amazing growers when everything's perfect, but man, there's so much that can go wrong! It's like a test of patience with those.
Celery is a nightmare out in the desert. It just doesn’t thrive in that kind of heat.
For me, it's definitely zucchini and squash. Living close to a river, those large leaf plants attract powdery mildew like crazy. I also have bad luck with peppers, just can't figure them out!
Same here! The humidity is killer for those in Mississippi; between that and the vine borers, it's a struggle!
I've had my fair share of challenges with asparagus and citrus trees. They act like they're thriving one minute, then suddenly decide they don't like me anymore!
Totally agree! The pests and weather can really ruin your plans with them.
