Yes. I use it to note when plants sprout, when I get the first _____, and at the end of the season, I write down what worked, what didn't, and thoughts on the next year.

I found it to be very helpful. Especially with some things that I harvest over a long period, like tomatoes. Hmmmm.... when can I expect enough tomatoes to start canning? When do I need to start freezing beans because they are about to explode on every plant?

That's about the same as I'm doing! Thanks for sharing your experience!

Great news, at least one of the Mexican Sour Gherkins (mini cucumbers) sprouted today!

I just planted 60 squash and 3 zuccinis! I'll do 48 peas tomorrow! Man, I love this greenhouse!

How big is your greenhouse? Those are going to get huge quick!

It's super windy out here but sunny. Other plants are starting to grow now in pots and digged up the garden bed to get ready to start planting some vegetables

Slowly filling in spaces, but I really need to pick up the pace, some of my seedlings are about to break free and go on a walk.

I was getting ready to plant today but saw in the forecast it was going to get super cold so I got to wait even longer :/

I'm not sure, maybe I'll measure it tomorrow. It's a good size though!

I planted kale and more greens the other day. Some of the previously planted seeds are sprout, most noticeably the Blacktail Mountain melons and one little Mexican Sour Gherkin (mini cucumber!)!

2 weeks to the "official" safe to plant date. After diddling with my rototiller for a few hours, I broke down and had some random dude on CL clean it up and getting it running right. Well now it snowed and the ground froze so I can't get in and play with the rototiller. Pure torture!

Starting to warm again. Brought in my cat grass since it was getting super tall. My kitty Callie seemed to love it, considering now it's short lol

Finally time to start getting plants in the ground!
