I have lived on the coast for 9 years now and have tried to grow things here for probably the last 6 or so. It's never worked. But I refuse to give up and keep trying things anyways. I had a killer garden last year coming up that got destroyed by deer and was really too shaded I think, so I moved a few plots closer to the house in one of the few spots we have that gets direct sunlight not diffused by the Live Oaks.
Long bed is tomatoes/peppers, small square bed is now sweet potatoes, metal planter has a few direct sown Kajari melons in it that I'll trellis (assuming they germinate). New this year are the Greenstalk vertical planters (I have 2 more to set up). One of them pictured is all strawberries, the other should be about 45 bush bean plants. It won't be a huge garden like I want to have one day, but we're doing what we can as we look for a piece of property for our family.
I have room here for one more of the large rectangle beds (already have it, just need to move it) that I may put in for squash/zucchini.
Side note, any gardeners know what the cigar is for? I consider it a must have when working in the dirt down here.
