I took multiple courses in college where my professors recommended always keeping a notebook close by. Many well-known entrepreneurs recommend it, too. It lifts a weight off you so you do not feel pressured to remember something. And it allows us to make our thoughts and dreams a reality.
Thomas Jefferson kept a lengthy gardening journal. It spans the years of 1766 to 1824. Amazon gives you an opportunity to flip through a few of the beginning pages. Thomas Jefferson kept track of when his hyacinth bloomed when he planted his asparagus and his pea harvest yield. He kept track of what went right and what went wrong to ensure future success with his future growing seasons.

Hi Jeremy. I'm looking to do exactly the same as you and use Trello for managing gardening tasks. I started looking at one list per month with labels for different parts of the garden. But whatever way I do it doesn't quite work. I was wondering what solution you went with in the end? Thanks

After years of gardening and having different planting guides scattered around that I had to sort through every time I needed information, I finally put together a garden planner a couple of years ago to help me stay on track. I converted an old day planner to suit my needs. I printed the above chart, a companion planting guide, a container vegetable guide with pot size, plant spacing, etc. I think I actually ended up printing every chart in that online book and used Washi tape and glue sticks to make pages for the ring binder part of the planner.
I added a cheap dollar store week by week planner to the front where I make notes about what chore was done in the garden, what was harvested, first blooms and first bird sightings. I also try to write down rainfall amounts and temperatures each day. My sketched out garden plans are in the back. I have everything I need right at my finger tips, including fungicide and pesticide info, and a fall planting schedule.

Read your seed packets (or plant tags) carefully. They should provide the height and width of mature plants, as well as spacing recommendations. Keep in mind one of the benefits of raised garden beds is you can plant veggies more closely together (this is called intensive planting or gardening), rather than in rows, like a traditional in-ground garden. This also helps keep the weeds down and can reduce the need to water as often. You do want to keep an eye on your garden and thin plants as they grow to maintain air circulation, which helps prevent diseases.
Is there a specific benefit of having the flowers in the same garden bed? or is just nearby helpful? Like does the flowers help in the soil in some way, or is it just for the pollinators. I have my raised garden bed planned out, but i have some old patio plater pots available so i was just going to plant them wtih flowers and put them beside the raised bed at the end. is that still helpful?
Thank you for this great info! One thing I wonder about with such a mixed bed, and then adding succession planting in there too, is do I need to worry about crop rotation and planting the same vegetables in the same spot next year?
Hi Becky, I would definitely make sure you amend your soil between plantings and at the end of the season (or beginning of the next season). Keep an eye out for pests and plant diseases as they can overwinter in the soil. That would be a cause for crop rotation.
I just bought a 3 tiered garden bed, 44 on bottom tier, 34 on middle tier, then 24 on top. Leaves approx 14 of space for bottom and middle tier, and about 24 on the top. Which vegetables would be best for each tier? Was thinking of carrots, onions, strawberries, peppers, kale, cucumbers. Thank you for any help
This is very helpful, especially the grocery store idea. ? My husband just recently built me an elevated planter box (about 2 feet tall 8x4ish). My biggest concern: deer & nighttime critters. Deer regularly hang out on our property (without any vegetables). Where exactly on your diagram would you plant the deer deterrent flowers (around entire perimeter)? Would lavender and/or other herbs around the ends work to deter them as well? We have also purchased wire mesh to go around the sides, however still concerned. thank you!
Hi Charmaine,
I think all these plants will fit just fine. You could have a row of peppers, a row with the tomato, jalapeo and eggplant, a row of celery and a row of carrots. You can stagger them a bit so that you have room for cages or stakes.
Thanks for all the information you are providing. I find it very useful. I always add marigolds to deter critters but did not think about having them to attract pollinators mainly because I have lots of flowers in the garden. Also thanks to your advice I will add new soil to the bed prior to planting the veggies I have grown indoor from seeds.
I have not have good luck in finding delicious flavorful tomatoes seed (not cherry tomatoes) to grow tomatoes even though I have tried several type. Would you be able to recommend some? Thank you.
