A few weeks ago Jenni @ Rainy Day Gardener had the idea of organizing all of my scraps of ideas from magazines and pictures into one book so that it wouldn't be a mess. It took me a while to get all of it together, but here it is. I had a tab for perennials, annuals, projects, misc, and garden. Then I just glued each article on the pages so that I can refer back to them. I also hole punched a few articles and plans I have and put them in. Hopefully this will keep my hodgepodge file drawer cleaner.
While doing this, I also marked all of my garden seeds that I'm going to be planting in Johnny's Seed Catalog. This way I can keep track so of the varieties and how they did. While doing this, I noticed a section before each of the plant types (example: Peas, Carrots, Squash, etc) that had really good growing information. From planting depth and distance, proper pH levels, diseases, and a germination guide. Even if you don't buy from them, it may be worth looking into for lots of good info. I'll try to post some of them as I do my early starts.
