Sometimes you need a nudge to motivate and inspire for the next year’s cycle of gardening. I think I found this last week, leafing through eldest son’s partner’s gardening magazines and literature. The main inspiration came from Charles Dowding’s 2019 gardening calendar
I first heard about him last year from a local contact. Charles is a no dig man who, I learned, is keen to share knowledge and help others become productive and successful veg growers. His calendar looked like a great help for me. What struck my eye the most was that sowing and planting times guidance was woven through each month, sowing under glass and outside. I liked this idea of being prompted so much that I’ve ordered a copy. Also his diary so that I can keep notes of what went in when and how it fared.
I’ll let you know how it goes! Will I remain motivated by this diary or will it become less of a challenge as the months pass?
