The Plant-A-Genda is a system for making your vegetable gardening a simple and organised process, suited to the climate you live in. Take the guess work out of your gardening and put the fun back in, with Plant-A-Genda. The Plant-A-Genda is also a way of getting the whole family involved in vegetable gardening as well. Check out the Plant-A-Gen!us product as well, it is our vegetable gardening organiser designed specifically for school aged children.
Complete in their own box, the sturdy monthly dividers in the Plant-A-Genda have colour coded stickers for each season and sit up neatly within the box waiting for you to store your seed packets behind each one.(Dividers that flop over are simply not me!) Use the included Seed Bible to find the first month of planting for each vegetable you wish to plant, and after planting, place the seeds back in their packet within the divider for safe keeping until next planting (or for the following year).
COLLECTING SEEDS: This is too simple. Save the seed packet of your organic seeds, and file behind first month of planting. At the end of your harvesting period, let one of your vegetables go to seed; collect the seeds and place them in the seed packet your have already filed, and replace in that file again for planting the following year. TIP: Try not to plant the same vegetables in the same place each year. Rotate them to minimize pest damage. This is especially true for brassicas [cabbage, cauli, broccoli, Brussels sprouts]. If possible, have 4 - 6 beds so that you can rotate your vegetables each season.
The "Seed Bible" is a cross reference booklet which explains aspects such as:
The Seed Bible also contains a section on Alleopathy, the scientific name given to Companion Planting, another way of saying you have 'organically grown vegetables'.
Stickers on the Plant-A-Genda dividers show you which vegetables you can plant in your climate area for each season. There are three versions of the Plant-A-Genda, each designed for the major climate areas of Cold, Temperate and Semi-Tropical. Select your appropriate climate area, or if buying for a friend or relative select their climate area, when placing your order.
