Great chart!
If you grow roses, always plant them on the East side of the house where they'll get the first morning sun. This helps them dry off faster, so they don't develop black spot if it rains overnight.
Also, underplant them with garlic & chamomile.
Plant basil next to EVERYTHING... It's one of those "nurse" plants.
You can take a handful of basil or chamomile & steep it, then add to your watering can in the morning. You won't believe how it can perk up a plant that has suffered an attack by insects or whatever.
Mulching your strawberries with pine needles with give you 10X the flavor!

Welcome!
I'm doing that now - we bought in April 2021 but torrential rains hit - 5 meters in 3 months!
Last year's garden was a near total bust. We did get 3 watermelons, some beans & some okra, not much else.
Just got my Jerusalem artichokes planted yesterday - I'm ripping out lawn so hubs doesn't have to build a fence around our veggie garden.
Turns out the soil's better there... They must have fertilized a bit, because the grass is lusher.
Makes it easier to rip out the turf, though, so I sit on my butt scraping & cutting away with my Japanese hoe... Adding compost & horse manure & some volcanic minerals (Azomite is AWESOME!!! Really ups the mineral content of your soil & therefore the mineral content of your food!)
He couldn't get around to fencing, so I went radical & decided to "help" him out by smallifying the size of the enormous front yard...
Next up - transplanting blueberries from the back to front!
I love these gardening threads ❤️❤️❤️.... but no gardening for me today, I’m working on a seat for 2 of my grandsons go cart.... right now they are using their sisters car booster seat 😂

Yeah i thought about that but the seat bottom was a little too thick, so I just re covered the old one, wouldn’t have been bad if the sewing machine hadn’t started talking back. 🤣

LOL...
Grandma to the rescue!
This weekend was too grey & cold & windy & wet for gardening...
Today looked like it was going to be more of the same, but at about 7am the SUN came out, spraying his golden warmth all over everything like butter!
Yay!
This granny's gonna be on her ass in the grass digging out turf for a new garden bed... and planting garlic.
I'm going to transplant some elephant ears from where they're overcrowded to in front of the roses, because they haven't had a lot of care the last few years & are way too "stalky," meaning canes 1-1/2" diameter up to 4 ft. off the ground. Hide all those bare canes with some lush elephant ears...
Cannas are coming out & lettuces & kale are going into that bed...
I think I'll get some plastic cups out of the barn & start our Amish paste tomatoes... Even if I do have to bring them indoors at night for a little while...

Yeah well I’m my own sewing machine mechanic, and my old hunks of iron haven’t wanted to cooperate lately, took me all day to sew those seat covers, grandma needs a good sewing machine repairman so I can sew more than work on shit. 🤣
I was just looking at the amish paste tomatoes in the seed catalog ! I’ve never grown those before, are they good? I’ve had my garlic in the ground for a couple months now, first year growing it and something pulled up all the plant markers telling me which variety is which, should be fun figuring that out 🤣
