unicornduke I was finally able to determine why I couldn't open my garden database on my work computer, which was that I had once tried using the longnumber on my access 2019 and the access on my work computer is 2016 and just Couldn't Handle It. So I changed it to regular number, imported all the elements to a new database and voila, I can now do my garden data entry on my work computer. It will give me something to do at the north office and get it done so I can spend my evenings doing other stuff.
At the start of last year, I built a 2019 year record with all plots, where they were in the field by row and number and added boxes for dates planted and harvested, printed it out and used it all year out in the field. So now I'm entering it in my database so I know when everything happened. I do this because I can remember all of what I planted and how it did, but now the specific dates and details, so I write them down and as I do the data entry, I can determine what I want to grow again and mark that down in my notes.
It's also a good way to figure out what crops I really care about growing, because those are the ones with the most notes.
I have probably half of my seeds processed and bagged up, so I think I'm going to stream spinning tonight and maybe stream doing the seed saving stuff tomorrow night so I can keep working on it. It all has to get done before I order seeds so I'd better get my butt in gear because I want to buy seeds. I am cutting back on how much I'm growing because last year was a little bit of a disaster but ehh, oh well.
