    Hello,

    Not sure if this is in the right place. I am wondering how people track what they planted especially veg and herbs etc.

    I use the Sutton's Garden Planner to plan what I'm doing to do, then keep a paper journal of what I did and observations.

    I did start doing it in a spreadsheet (my preferred way to do almost anything) but I found I liked sketching so switched to paper.

    I use the online RHS "my garden" which keeps a log of the plants in the garden along with pictures.

    I don't track. At work I track everything, and even have a tracker to track my trackers. :biggrin: In the garden I rely on gut feeling, if a spot looks like it could do with Daffodils then surely I planted some in... :scratch: Advancing years give a bonus thrill when plants I definitely did not sow turn up :heehee:


    For work tracking Excel is unbeatable.
