Track Planting, Garden Activities, Plant Progress, Watering, Harvests, and Gardening Notes

Getting started
Records are easiest to keep when you write them right after you finish in the garden, while details are fresh. Short entries are fine on busy days; save the journal pages for weekends when you have more to say. At the end of the season, reading back through your notes is the best way to decide what to plant again and what to change.
