A fellow Mac gardener here. I’ve been looking everywhere for Numbers templates for seed planting schedules and the like. Could I impose upon you to email your Numbers files?

[...] like enjoying a salad on a frosty February day from your own garden. I even got to enter in into my handy file to keep track of my harvests (which will be done as a template soon and available for [...]

I am definitely interested in the template of your garden harvest tracker. As I am new to this, anything to help organize myself the better. I do have a mac, although I currently use excel on it, but I'd love to play around with your template either way. Thanks. Andres’s last blog post.. Wintersown Seeds

Hmmm. I'm a Mac user. I may be interested in the harvest tracker. I don't have spread sheets but I've got my planting schedule on my ical and on the big calendar on the wall. My husband thinks I've lost it. Judy’s last blog post..Favorite comic

AHAHAHA! And I thought I was bad! You've got CHARTS! Whoohoo, someone way geekier than me! :) I do spreadsheets, colour-coded planting grids and seed-starting calendars. I still have no idea what I'm growing this year. I really got to get my butt in gear and plan it out. My main problem is understanding how crop rotation works and what I should/shouldn't plant in one spot in relation to last year's crop. I'm trying lots of new tomatoes this year like Berkeley Tie-Dye, Anna Russian, Aunt Gertie's Gold, Green Doctor's (really, I could go on about all the new varieties I have) as well as the craziest, most-hottest pepper in the world, the Bhut Jolokia. I don't have the stones to try it though I'm growing it in the interest of social science. I want to know which of my friends is crazy enough to try it. Good luck on all your growing this year! Happy gardening! Kathy’s last blog post..Pre-sprouting 2009

For the first time this year I actually mapped out my gardens and planned using graph paper and everything. I figured it was a good idea because I had SO MUCH more space than I've ever had before (I think my total area is going to be around 450 sq ft of garden space). I was pleased to discover when I finished it that I had room for MORE plants than I thought. Yippee! As for new, I'm trying a whole whack of new varieties of tomatoes, peppers, squash, corn... pretty much new varieties of everything in my garden. I'm actually going to be trying melons for the first time this year too. I always assumed before because of my growing season I just couldn't grow them at all, until I found a few heirloom varieties that were specially grown for shorter seasons. I'm very excited!

I love planning out my garden, but I always end up getting mad at my yard since I'm limited to where I can plant. I have a large black walnut tree of death in the middle of the yard (so I can't plant much around that) and then most my yard is shade. Some day I'll have a nice sunny lot.
