Vegetable Garden Planning Software - An Online Solution

In my post on January 15, 2014 (http://dansgardening.blogspot.com/2014/01/a-great-garden-planning-tool.html) , I talked about a great online garden planning tool that I have been using for several years.  It is the Vegetable Garden Planner by the Jung Seed Co., and can be found at : http://gardenplanner.jungseed.com/

This plan is a web based software which is priced reasonably at $25 per year.  It is a great way to determine how to plan out your garden and to keep a good record of what you plant each year, where you plant it, and even notes about each variety.  The program is available for a free 30 day trial for you to evaluate it.

In my earlier post about this program, I showed a generic view of what a garden plan would look like using the software.  Today I thought I would share with you my plan for one of my vegetable gardens for the 2014 growing season.  Of course this is an early draft subject to change.  Gardeners are known for making changes as the time grows nearer and we start the planting process.

Following is a link to the plan for my "Lower Garden".  As I mentioned in earlier posts, I also have a second garden, the "Upper Garden".  You may notice some empty spots in the lettuce section.  This is done purposely to allow space for subsequent plantings throughout the summer and also for the thinning/moving of some lettuces such as romaine.  I usually plant at least two plantings of lettuce and sometimes also Swiss chard.

So get busy planning that vegetable garden.  There is still plenty of time!

I hope my garden plan will give you some ideas.

Until next time.
