Gardening

Well it is almost fall and my vegetable garden didn’t do real well this past growing season, sure the cucumber when crazy but I got a bunch of small tomatoes nothing really big, I did however finally grow that a single pepper from my pepper plant. however for the squashes i got a couple of little dinky ones. I think the main reason was that the location of these plants doesn’t get enough sunlight during the day. Perhaps I need to grow my plants in pots in a place that gets more sunlight next year. Then again the other reason could be that the soil has been over worked over the past couple of years and needs a year off to replenish the soil or something. Any ideas?
