Thursday : Garden Journal

Happy Thursday crafters. And Welcome to my Craft blog. So make sure you Follow for Crafts for all season and craft levels.

This journal I made for a gift for a gardening friend. So I let it blank inside but add a few charts and places for her to journal. The picture is from a favorite trip we took.

Items to include in the pages :

• Personal journal
• Dates you divided your plants and WHY you divided.
• When and how you started your bulbs and tubers.
• When you moved perennials and WHY.
• Notes on plant growth (ie. vining, tall, bushy) and size.
• Date and notes on pruning and cutting back in the fall

Everyday facts to include :

• First and last frost dates.
• A labeled diagram of your garden area.
• Fertilizer application type and date.
• Pests, treatments and dates.
• What you planted that didn’t work and WHY you think it…
