I don't have a yard, just a little porch where I have several pots I'm trying to grow things in.  I have one of chives, a tomato plant, a pepper plant, some flowers, and I had some onions. 

Although my mom could make a twig grow and bloom in the middle of the desert, I seem to have a bit of a brown thumb. Not quit black, because I can still grow some things. But I'm nowhere near her level of gardening Goddess.  The onions I planted ended up icky and squishy.  I don't think I overwatered them, but I probably did?  How much do onions need to be watered?  It's been in the 90s the past several weeks, so I want to make sure they're not going to shrivel up.

My pepper plant seems to be doing all right. I'm watering it every other day, and I think there's a few little ones that will start to form shortly. But the tomato plant I think is a bust. It hasn't had any tomatoes yet, and my mom's is practically falling over with them. 

Oh, garden gurus, help!
