Indy Srinath Instagram – 👩🏾‍🌾 as much as I love, wild, radical, chaotic, and unplanned gardens, it’s important to get a bit organized if you’re growing food for a harvest.
I rarely stick to my crop plans, but I still record where I planted everything (even if it died after two weeks!) because it’s important for proper crop rotation.
Let’s say you planted tomatoes in one corner of your garden, they got eaten by hornworms after two weeks and you never harvested a single tomato. So the next season you forgot you planted tomatoes in that spot (because you dint remember eating any tomatoes) and decide to plant cabbage! Your cabbage will struggle to grow because the tomato plants you forgot about have already taken in the exact nutrients that the cabbage needs to thrive! Boo!
This is where referring to your crop plan would help 🙂
Let me know if any other tips that help you all stay organized!
