Bed-numbering/naming?

[Vegi potager]

<sigh> I obviously have no imagination, each bed is a,b,c... As I kinda do square metre/ no dig each bed is made up of 9 blocks.

Thinking I may go with VC style labelling to help him indoors find the right spot to go cut some chives. (K1 if you really want to know!)

Now I just sound like a real saddo. I don't think that I am going to admit to having a map with the garden plan on a clip board in the green house. Nope not me

It's great what you learn on some threads

I have named areas
Why do people number/name individual beds? Does it make planning easier?

Now that might be a good idea, planning, never thought of that

This is why I "name" mine .................https://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gr...ned_89073.html

First published in 2016 as a guide for me and I still have no idea how she operates her garden

^Maybe I would number mine, then, if I were better organised. Hmm. I'll have to think about this.

I name (well, number) for record-keeping, it's easier to have some consistency to keep records (well it was until i lost my book...).

The two quotes above make me wonder if I should organise and keep records, but no doubt I would have the same problem as bikermike but on a daily basis

How did you know I have a map on a cllpboard?? Its in the kitchen, not the GH.

It's also a map of the ice flows between Alaska and Russia.

makes me think a dinosaur fossil, embedded in the rock.
Actually, that's an old map and its been revised since I took the photo. It won't be much use if you need to find your way round the garden as some beds have been amalgamated and others split, so you may end up down a blind alley.

What are grape onions VC, and I am surprised that you have your composting area so far from your chickens, no as I put that down I realise why it's a good idea, it helps keep you mobile and that important at your age

If you come to visit me, rary, this is the current map which matches the days of the month.
Today, for example, as its the 5th of June, you'll find me in Bed 5E.

Of course, if I knew you were coming, I'd be hiding in the chicken run.

Now I have taken over the neigbouring plot I've re numbered them all based on the new layout

*Abases herself before Cadalot's CAD plan...*

I have two. One in the kitchen, one in the tool box on the plot. They're both laminated.

(this is an unlaminated, straight from PC version)

Heh. I just realised the only thing NOT on the plan is the bed numbers/names... The only thing I can actually remember!

[Vegi potager]

CADs, lamination, wall posters! - I am suddenly thinking that 1. I am under achieving some how and 2. winter is just too long...

I think we're just champion procrastinators, Vegi potager... ;-) At least, I know I am.
