It is important to observe the fallow season: let your garden to rest for three years, and care for it one year.

Mostly just hogweed and kudzu. Just don't get the sap on your hands because it reacts with sunlight and gives you chemical burns.

As a joke you can tell your friends that hogweed sap has natural SPF properties then laugh as they literally go blind

I like growing those peppers that look like tiny dicks.

They taste good enough but it is fun to leave a bag of them at work for others to take.

What is big green grapes
My grapes are small dark and tangy. If you try to eat them with any green on them you'll barf. Like chewing the grossest part of a forest or something. Tastes like the way a herbaceous poison vine smells (not poison ivy the kind that just makes you sick if you eat it and smells real gross anyway)

ferns are rad u rear end in a top hat! mine are up to my armpits already this year, and are gradually spreading to consume everything they can get to. they're outcompeting grass.

it's a bog plant, so you need to keep it in bog conditions, possibly your pants?
if you don't want to do that I would used distilled or rainwater on them. Tap water is wildy different based on where you are and it might be to mineral-y. They need bog style soil and I guess light I dunno

I have accidental blackberry, honeysuckle, and an avocado tree growing in my backyard. I vaguely remember throwing an avocado seed into the bushes a long time ago so that's probably where that came from and the rest probably came from bird poo poo. The honeysuckle is really nice and bumblebees seem to really like it but it's starting to take over. The avocado tree is taking forever to grow, they're really slow growers, but it's healthy and I don't have to water it or anything.

I also had a pumpkin pop up out of nowhere one year that probably came from a Jack-o-lantern I carved the previous Halloween.

Your backyard sounds like what I want mine to be. I throw so many seeds and jack-o-lanterns and other stuff out there with the hope that something will grow but the only thing i've had luck with is just what the birds poo poo out from the bird feeder

If you live in a hot climate grow lots of ground cover plants. I have a lot of creeping virginia and other vining low cover plants. Shade trees help as well. If you want to grow healthy plants you need a lot of other healthy plants around them because they promote a good soil ecosystem. They also help keep moisture in the soil. You can't just throw a seed out into some dry dirt baked by the sun and expect it to grow. Use organic fertilizers and make compost tea to help improve the soil biology.

There's a lot of cool new research being done about soil science and how we've been doing it all wrong these years with chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

This is a good video if you want to learn more about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzthQyMaQaQ

It's actually pretty interesting.

Twerk it good!
As I was tilling the soil a small brown bird hopped around in eager anticipation of the worms I would uncover, I was happy as I had clearly made a new friend in the avian community.

I didn't uncover any worms however and then it looked at me for ages and I knew it was thinking about pecking my juicy eyes out and now I am deathly scared of it. I fear that one day I will be innocently mowing the lawn and the evil son of a bitch will swoop down and gouge my peeper out.

it is an invasive weed that will severely blister your skin on contact and make it severely photosensitive (i.e. the sun will give you terrible blisters on the contact site) for years to come, perfect for the GBS garden

My mom planted this tree about 24 years ago, started fruiting about 13-14 years ago, successfully fruits once every 2-3 years usually (generally it will open its flowers the night of a major freeze the other years, because NM weather is loving stupid rapid-changing high desert poo poo). When it does fruit its yield is loving massive.
