Maggie Wang, forum member and gardening gal, created one of the easiest ways to organize and decipher planting dates by using an Excel Spreadsheet. Gayla posted this chart last year, but its automated style makes it useful for this and years to come.

If you, like me, have gleaned the pages of YGG and wrung out every last drop of info, but are still antsy to see green, be sure to wander over to The French Gardener (a site I found while looking for information on cardoons, a new addition to my garden this year).

Heavy Petal, as always, rocks my gardening socks off. Especially check out her post called Inspiration Overload to choose your own adventure in gardening blogs.

As if those sites aren’t enough to help you through to the spring, Assertagirl Amy, Dirt Contributor extraordinaire, has created a Forum Member Blog Directory, where you’ll find hands on techniques and like-minded plant addicts.
Anyone else have any great suggestions for whiling the chill away?
