Gardening - 7 Weeks after last frost 2015 - Garden Goals review

    I hate to say this but I'm going to perfectly honest. I didn't get any of my goals done this week. I don't want to lye and say I did. I know what your thinking then what did I do this week? Did I do anything around the homestead? The answer is yes we did a lot.

This week I 

1. 

   Hubby and I harvesting raspberries

   Harvested raspberries! We harvested over 3lbs worth. We harvest in the rain, and after work. You can read more about our adventure on my post Gardening- Harvesting Raspberries .
2.  We also bought $10 worth of corn last Saturday and we worked on storing it. On Monday night we froze the corn for future use. You will see a post about this later on when I finish with all my ways of storing my corn.

Last Weeks Garden goals

1. Rooting plants - I want to start to cut plants that won't seed and start to help them grow roots. I would like to do this to the lavender and rosemary. - didn't get to
2. Blossom Blight - It has rained her so much that I need to keep a good eye on my plants. I have to really keep an eye on the squash so it doesn't get blossom blight. - I didn't get to
3. Plant seeds for fall harvest - in all the areas around the garden that haven't gotten plants growning in them I want to start to plant carrots, turips, Swiss chard, brussel sprouts. - I didn't get too
4. Plant the plants that are growning - I have flowers and veggies to get in to the ground. I want to work on that this week. - started but didn't finish 
5. Mulch - mulch around the garden fence. I planted plants in it but the wedding are coming back so fast. I really need to mulch it - started but didn't get too

Gardening - 19 Weeks Before Last Frost (2015)- Weekly Gardening Goals

                    My book

     Time to start getting the gardening ready for the spring! I am a weekend gardener so I have to make a list and stick with it. This is very important because the gardening can get super busy very quickly. So having goals and a list helps me stick to my goal. I follow my garden journal and my Week-by-Week Vegetable Gardener’s Handbook. By following these to things it will help me stay on track to complete My 2015 Yearly Gardening Goals. 

Weekly Goals

1.  Organize my flower seeds - I have a huge container filled with edible flower and non-edible seeds. I also want to organize the seeds buy when to plant. 
2. Inventory my pots - I am hoping this year will be my best year ever, which means I need to get my pots organized and cleaned. I want to start to organize them. 
3. Inventory my seeds - I want to go though my flower seeds and write what seeds I have when to plant and if they are edible or not. I also would like to do the same with my herbs. 
4. Start to plan out my garden for 2015 - I have what I want my gardens to look like in my head. Now I just want to get it down on paper. 
5. Organize my herb seeds - I want to go though my herb container and start to organize them on when to plant. 

     How do you get ready for your garden ready? Are you a list maker? If so what's on your list?
