Summer Blog Challenge, Day 52- Have You Seen My Raised Garden Bed Lately??

Today's Summer Blog Challenge prompt is to give your best gardening tip.  Well, I am not really feeling super confident in my gardening skills at the moment.  This is what my garden looked like today...
Yeah, it is not looking all that great.  *sigh* Remember when I excitedly started my raised garden bed?  So full of hope and bountiful anticipation?  (Click here if you need to refresh your memory.)
So far my garden has produced 2 tomatoes that were not really edible and 1 jalapeno pepper that I actually used earlier this week.  I have about 3 more jalapenos that may be ready in a week or two.  My poblano peppers did absolutely squat.  De nada. :/
Not sure exactly where I went wrong, but I do have one gardening tip for you.  Don't get discouraged.  And don't completely throw in the towel.  Yeah, I know my raised garden bed is pretty much a bust at this point.  But I still have my herbs growing well, and I also seem to have raised a hosta or two from what seemed like certain death by deer munching...

And there is always next year, right? ;)
