Hubby has removed a lot of clay from some of his beds, and the rest he has just continued to amend. Drought is hard to deal with, so I understand what you mean about the stone, and it can be quite attractive.
I can see why your organization of seeds sort of got away from you. It’s boring, but I’ve listed all the ones I now have on my computer and am now going back to put the number of days to maturity on them. Once I get the other seeds through the mail, I’ll get them on here with their maturity dates and then print the list and put that in my new folder.
The calendar pages I printed have enough space on each day so I can write what I did or the plants did on those days. Hopefully, I will not have to write what the squirrels/birds did since I think I have fixed that problem.
