ABOUT MY GARDEN

novice, working to improve heavy clay soil. Only been gardening a 3-4 years. Mostly flowers & Asian greens & Snow Peas. Love dark blue & deep violet. And red/orange small raised beds, but still heavy clay soil. lots of shade USDA Zone 8 (Sunset Zone 5) Maritime Pacific NorthWest: 3 seasons of rain, then a dry cool summer. Fall rain tends to rot seeds before they mature. MANY slugs. Tiny yard.

MY 2011 SEED SOWING JOURNAL AND NOTES

I started using pine-bark-based soil mixes in 2010, but petunia's did not sprout in that.
