Toothpick timekeeping!

image

A toothpick tracking system. Before heading out to be transplanted in the field, so they don’t bet burned, seedlings growing under lights first have to be introduced to the sun. They go out in the day, get a toothpick, and come back in for the night. Each day of hardening off is marked by a toothpick—two or three days and they’ll be fine. Simple and sustainable—reuse your toothpicks and a single box could probably be made to last a lifetime.

  1. Wonderful website!!! I appreciate your enthusiasm with organic farming!! Please check out my site at http://www.ifihadafarm.com. I sell children’s books and I have a dream with the proceeds from my books to establish a Organic Farm Exchange in each community
    all over. For people to come and learn about sustainable farming and how to grow organic and to be aware of the GMO’s(genetically modified Organics) that are harmful
    to our body and as well to our animals. Our children are our future and we need to make sure they grow and develop with a healthy body and mind, one that is free from GMO’s and their harmful effects. I have 2 books currently for sale and another is in the process. “If I Had A Farm” book and coloring book are 2 available and children will enjoy reading and coloring about a young boys dream to have a organic farm. There is one page that does mention to stay away from GMO’s. Thank you
