Growing results and crops

What seed you actually have, whether it still germinates, and what the plot really produced.

Planning sheets record what you meant to grow; these record what happened. They print no sowing dates, no viability lifespans and no units, because those depend on the species, on how it was stored and on where you garden — the packet and your own scales are the source.

Sheets in Growing results and crops

Seed Stock and Viability Record

Know what is already in the seed box, and whether it still comes up, before you spend January ordering another copy of it.

GR-01 1 page

Harvest Weight Tally Sheet

Turn a season of odd handfuls and full trugs into one running total per crop, so next year's planting is decided by what the plot produced rather than by memory.

GR-02 1 page

Crop Rotation Plan Sheet

See what every bed has carried without trying to remember it, so next season is planned against the real history of the plot.

GR-03 1 page

Greenhouse and Polytunnel Record

Keep track of what is under cover at any moment and how it has been treated, so a crop that sulks can be read against the conditions it actually had.

GR-04 1 page

Soil Test and Amendment Record

Read a change in the ground against what was actually put on it, instead of adding the same things year after year on the strength of a vague memory.

GR-05 1 page

Orchard and Fruit Tree Record

Keep a history for every tree, so the one that never crops and the one that carries the whole harvest are both on paper rather than in your head.

GR-06 1 page

Compost Batch Record

Know which bin is ready and which is still cooking, and see why one batch came out well and another did not.

GR-07 1 page

Pest and Disease Observation Record

Build a picture of what turns up on your plot and when, and see whether what you tried last time actually made any difference.

GR-08 1 page

Variety Trial Comparison Sheet

Turn a vague sense that one variety did better into something you can read back in January when the seed order is due.

GR-09 1 page

Allotment Season Plan and Review

Put the plan and the honest verdict on the same page, so the lesson from one season is in front of you when you plan the next.

GR-10 1 page

Fruit Pest Trap Count Record

Read the start of a pest flight off your own counts instead of guessing it. Empty checks are written down too, because a run of zeros is what dates the first catch.

GR-11 2 pages

Fruit Blossom Stage and Frost Record

Judge frost risk and losses on your own trees, at the stage they have actually reached. Each cold night and the damage check after it sit on the same page.

GR-12 2 pages

Grapevine Pruning and Vine Balance Record

See whether a vine is growing too hard or too weakly from weights and counts. The same flagged vines, weighed every year, show what a change in pruning did.

GR-13 2 pages

Maple Tapping and Sap Collection Log

Keep track of every taphole so next year's go into fresh wood, and see what each season made. The daily log ties each run of sap to the readings on your own thermometer.

GR-14 2 pages

Biological Control Release Record

Know what worked against which pest by logging each delivery, release and follow-up check. The sprays column shows when something nearby may have spoiled a release.

GR-16 2 pages

Hydroponic Nutrient Solution Log

Spot pH and EC drift in a reservoir before the plants show it, with every reading on one log. Clean-outs and meter calibrations are kept with the readings they affect.

GR-17 2 pages

Green Manure and Cover Crop Record

See which green manures earn their place by following each from sowing to the crop after it. The family column keeps mustards and clovers in the right place in your rotation.

GR-18 2 pages

Horticultural Show Entry and Results Record

Keep every class, placing and judge's comment from a show on one sheet. Read back next year, it shows which varieties and which staging did well, and which classes to leave alone.

GR-23 1 page

Cut Flower Vase Life Test Record

Find out which varieties and cutting stages last longest in a vase in your own conditions. Sell and give the good keepers, and stop growing the ones that do not last.

GR-24 2 pages

Fruit Harvest Maturity Test Record

Judge picking dates on what the fruit shows rather than the calendar. Five varieties, several test dates each, with the picking dates and how the fruit kept written underneath.

GR-25 2 pages
