After letting my soil sample air dry for several hours yesterday it was all good to go. I packed it up in the requisite envelope and sent it off to Texas A&M for testing this afternoon. Now we wait.
Meanwhile we can be gathering the other necessities for our little journey. One of the most important of these is a garden journal. I was lucky enough to receive one of these for Christmas. I would recommend a high quality, leather-bound blank journal. As my mom told me, "You're going to want a good one because you will be keeping it for a long time."
Gardening is one of those hobbies that seems to turn into a lifelong obsession for a lot of people. Being able to chronicle your successes and failures will eventually give you more successes than failures...that's the idea anyway.
