Weekly review & Giveaway... Gardeners come see :)





I was given a free 30 day trial to the groOrganic Garden Planner on http://www.groorganic.com/
I was really excited to try this out because I have my greenhouse and I love to Garden. I was really excited to also become a member of groOrganic. The planner uses a SFG method. Which is square foot gardening. I have never used this type before, usually I just plant. lol. I found that it was a lot easier and that I saved space in the process. You can add plants or delete plants as the summer goes on. I was also very impressed by the planner itself. Every plant I was looking for, and then some, were there, although not all varieties. For example Comfrey was an available plant. However there was only 1 type of tomato. But when you double click on the picture of the tomato you can add the variety of your choice, like cherry. I was also pleasantly surprised that each plant they list includes an information button next to the name. The info tab tells you all about the plant, a few examples are plant family, soil, space and harvesting. So now I know all about Comfrey :). The Planner also takes into effect where you live and your frost zones. So as the summer progresses you know when to start sowing certain seeds and planning for the following year. The planner also automatically keeps perennials in the plan for the following year.
All in all I was very impressed and would like to use this planner every year to plan my garden. I would just add more varieties of plants.
