Sow what your actually going to eat

16.2 years ago garden planning

It is getting that time a year when we are all getting our seeds in order and start planning what we will be including in your garden. Every year I always tell myself “Take it easy, don’t overdo it” but unfortunately I never listen to myself and look at the many seeds in the packet and end up composting at least half of my crop of spinach, carrots, and lettuce. I hope that writing this down will help me to remember to listen to that little voice when I plant my peas and spinach tomorrow.

    We have exactly the same problem! It is difficult not to get carried away & buy loads of pretty packets, & then to plant long rows of the first packets to be opened.If only part of the seed packet is used, there will be room for something else, which will bring a bit of variety, instead of groans from around the table of ‘Not that again!’Thanks for reminding us – we will try to reform!TopVeg

    In my city there is a program that you donate the extra vege’s to. It all goes to the needy.Maybe there is one somewhere around you???
