garden planning My calendar told me to plan my garden this weekend. I dug out my handy dandy Clyde’s Vegetable Planting Slide Chart to see when I would really have to plan the garden. I used the average last frost date of this part of the USA that I live in to slide over the planting dates on Clyde’s Vegetable Planting Slide Chart. I saw that I do need to plan my garden soon. Onions could be set out mid-February.

Where can you get a handy dandy Clyde’s Vegetable Planting Slide Chart? Why, at the Clyde’s Vegetable Planting Slide Chart website of course at …

Donna, you are so good to us to provide this info. Now I need to go and look up what the average frost date is for us. I know it is much sooner than yours. I still to research green houses so that I can show hubby what I would like to have and then we can plan out how to build such a thing.

Why, Thank you Elaine! :D I did not even mention that this Planting Slide Chart is made by a homeschooling family of 8. :)

Yes, you need to research the greenhouse. I`ve always wanted one and when you get one, I can do that thing that people say they do -- "Live vicariously through you"

I do not think we are going to have a garden this year. Hubby was not happy that we spent a lot on the garden and did not get much out of it.

Garden`s are time consuming too. It takes a bit, both of hard work and of money, to get them established.

I hope to plant a spring and summer garden this year. I think I must be nuts over gardening because I do all of the work, even all of the putting away. I have help eating it though. :P That is okay though.

Donna, I have been learning, through the experience of others up here, that if you want to have a successful garden you either need lots of space (do not have) or a green house (more likely to get). Since I really want to grow tomatoes I should have a green house for them that will provide the heat that they need to do well, especially if we have a similar summer in 09 as we did in 08.

Elaine have you been to the Alaska Cooperative Extension website? They have some publications that might be helpful. Below is a direct link to the home gardening section.
