Maria asked,

Help! Last year I had a mysterious fungus in my garden that destroyed my green beans, peas, and cucumbers. I sprayed a fungicide but the same this is happening this year! What am I doing wrong?

Maria,
Without a bit more info, I can’t be sure what kind of fungus you have, but I’ll take a guess: Are the plants shriveling up at the base as young seedlings? If so, the fungus is called damping off and can be avoided by planting seeds that are treated with a fungicide. Of course, this means you aren’t growing organic veggies. This fungus stays in the ground for several years, so if you do want to go organic, you’ll need to plant in a different area next year.
