Garden diaries
The story of your first pot
A simple observation journal to make your next season better.

This is a starter journal prompt, not a report of a real experiment.
On planting day
Record the date, seed variety, pot size and approximate direct sunlight. Write why you chose the plant.
Every week
Note new leaves, rain, dry spells and any changes you made. A short honest entry is more useful than a perfect-looking garden photo.
At the end
What grew well? What would you change? Save these notes in My Garden and use them when planning the next season.
