Is gardening as a whole a hit and miss when trying to get a good harvest? (lemmy.world)

What I mean is, do you get better crop yield in one year and a year later you don't get much depending on how bad or good the season was?

I'm at zone 7 UK if that helps. We've just started to try gardening this year and the summer season has been scorching most of the time and with autumn rolling in it's still fairly warm but not sunny.

That's what I was afraid of lol, it's been on my mind if whether the weather has something to do with crops not growing. It does make sense that some years climates are different than others, what with climate change and all that.

It's totally weather dependent. It's the figuring out how to work with it that's the tricky part, and it is tricky!

Yeah! Gardening is tough man 😅 but I guess the reward and investment is worth it once you get the hang of it and I can't wait to reap what I showed no pun intended.
