Help!!! My first plan

elvisfan13 4/21/2012, 8:42 pm

I am very new to SFG & I just made my first plan using an excel worksheet. How can I post my plan here to get some advice?

The only thing I can think of is to take a screen shot and upload it to a photo sharing site like photobucket. Then add it like a picture. Someone with more experience might have a better answer, though.

ok I found a different site for my plan, so here it is! I am looking for some feedback, this is my first SFG & my first plan....I have no idea what I am doing! Disregard the melons & pumpkins (I forgot to delete them) however I am going to put the watermelon & pumpkins on the 2 blank squares in the back and the cantaloupe in the blank front square. Can I do that? Embarassed

Have you read the book All New Square Foot Gardening? I'm still too new to give a lot of advice, but I believe it will help people critique your plan if you offer up which direction is north. It looks to me like you're trying to put all the tall and/or vining plants to the left side, so is that north?

Where did you find the icons used in your plan?

Steven, there are several websites you can go to where you can make a garden plan. Some of them are SFG friendly. Here are two:

North is where the big brown rectangle is aka my shed. I just ordered the book & am waiting for it to arrive! Thanks!

oh, and the icons I used are from the site I used to plan my garden. www.growveg.com I just did the 30 day trial, to see how I like it.
