Tag journal and my plants

I've been keeping an old journal around to keep all my plant tags in after the season so if I have questions I can reference it 

That's what mine looks like it's sence gotten way too large for itself but I'm still trying to keep in there because it's convient for me I like the hard cover and sprial binding because of the flax ability it allows me 


Open to a random page this was 2012 tags looks like mostly herbs on there as you can see they can get quite thick the sprial binding in my mind allows more room to grow as the case may be on the top of the page I mark what year the tags are from I just finished getting the 2013 ones in and need to clean the 2014 ones before they go in if there's extra things I can remember I'll put notes for them in too overall it works for me and beats tossing out good info even tho I know what I'm growing fairly well by now 

Aside from that because my space is at a premium i have tied up all my tomatoes (after they've started falling over and bearing fruit so proubly not the best time) I've also stabilised the turvy plants so they will go more up then down because they seem ok spreading (not completely full sun this year because of the trees) moods?
