Far more then I thought!

It turns out I will be needing FAR more seed packs then I thought 21 pages of 6 packs a page was barely enough for JUST my herbs!

I am saving any pieces I think I can reuse or Outherwise benefit from so commertial seed packs and any plastic bags that things were holding that can be salvaged and even reused

Seed packs

This is a MASSIVE pain lol but I'm now cutting out about 200 mini seed packs (copyied 6-page packs at 50% then put 4 on a page so now I have 24 per page)

Then after I'm done putting those together I have sheets of origami paper that I printed as well that I plan on making into some packs as well --so I'm thinking at the end of this ill have a few hundred (5-600?) seed packs so I'll be rolling about in them lol

Once I sort something I really like I can get to organising my seeds which is why I started this whole project in the first place

New system coming soon!

In about 2 weeks or so I'll have a set of pages for my storage

I'm moving from a big box
Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

(hope that works)

That's my current "box" system that I'll admit isn't presently working too well for me so I baught 4 binders and a bunch (ok 600) of index cards I also plan on making new seed packs so I can have something that's a custom size to what I want to do

ATM I'm thinking 1 binder herbs 1 edibles 1 flowers and 1 sase "box" or so to speak then should be easy to "pull" what I want then (I'd think?) lol

With this will come 2 lists 1 master for my records and 1 trade for everyone to see/look at

I just hope I can sort what to do with the ones that are being stored in pill bottles ATM hopefully I'll work something out --or I could just pre-pack them? That's a bit of a pain but is easyier when it comes to sending things out

Oh! I think I'll need to get some glue stick or just some glue to dilute in water from the dollar store --or I could use some double sided tape?
