Came back to read through all of the great info here again... so many awesome ideas!
Also wanted to give a shout-out to the ATP database, or more specifically the list of "my plants" it lets one create, for being the 'missing link' in my notes. It has the pics! If one wants a list of their plants and hasn't already started one, I'd recommend using ATP plant list. You can put notes there, indicate if you have enough for trading, and not worry about losing the whole thing in a computer crash.
I'm really going to have to use some kind of little marker when I put dormant bulbs out there, move them around. Sliced so many of the poor things lately. The funniest one though, I sliced through one bulb, trying to put an exact same kind one in the same spot. Not sure what they are (from a swap,) but apparently I definitely think that's a good spot for it.
How are the notes evolving out there?
