Any guides to growing stuff in desert climates? There's almost nothing about it and I haven't been particularly successful...
All my watermelons died slowly from ant/aphid infestation, my peppers are still alive (I lost a number of them, idk why) and a few are fruiting but they're absolutely tiny.
My Holy Basil plants are dying, half my Thymes look dried out but the other half look fine
My SFG bed is doing well though, I've got a few chunky Turnips out of it and the peas are doing well.
I'm thinking of expanding to foot-deep raised beds on legs, to take advantage of a lot of unused space and to keep the hens/ducks out, but I'd seriously want to learn more about the environment I'm growing in and how to garden proper
