For most gardeners throughout history, notes are an afterthought, I’d imagine. Keeping track of your garden visually is a great way to see what’s going on but without notes, you may forget what issues you encountered, what plants did well (or didn’t!) and how the weather may have affected your growing conditions.
Enter GrowVeg.com to help you out! I’ve been using the website for the past several years to know when and how much seed to start, organize my notes about plants and issues I encounter, and which varieties of plants I’m growing. They have over 100 varieties of plants to choose from, and their seed catalogs span many different companies.
It’s a VERY powerful tool and has been immeasurably useful for our garden planning. It also gives you the option to put in your address or zip code to get your first and last frost dates, which are helpful for knowing when to plant different families of plants.
As I’ve stated, there are tons of uses for it, but try it out for yourself sometime! They offer one free week of use before you can choose to subscribe. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
