The cause is not lost, I'm going to get a soil tester, moisture tester, I'm going to use greenhouse sprayers for water with rain gages to make sure only the exact amount of water is used, lime to lower pH (or raise it, I forget) neem oil on the first sign of mold etc.

Look, there's a heck of a lot of plants that magically grow in untreated and unfertalized awful, clay ridden soil like in the middle of nowhere without any water from me like surprise barley, mysterious undying tomatoes growing out of a crack, a giant cucumber vine that made literally 10lb cucumbers before I looked at it twice, a huge corn stalk growing like a weed under the bird feeder, so it's not salt spray which is insane if you have a car, but plants don't care. Yes this is the same place, I can see the ocean and smell it of the wind is right. Thankfully I'm not so close that I smell rotten fish like at my work which is literally 1ft above the high tide mark at the water, but the occasional stray wind will bring me an algea scent. My poor truck was in rust free condition when I bought it and now it's a consistent dark orange on every free inch of metal.

No, the plants are fine, I am a noob and actually deter their growth. But that will change. I don't do pesticides or herbicides but neem oil seems to help mold.

We have morning mist and that's how native plants live because our rainfall totals are less than 1/8 the square root of a square horse per year, our temperature is always between 15.67 and 21.5 Rømer daytime temperature all year and never goes below 491.7 Rankine. So it's not frost. In fact a stray tomato plant that I did nothing to survived winter and is still growing to this day over a year old.
