The Garden Layout group has definitely seen a fluctuation in importance. Originally, we were merely assigned to figure which plants worked best together, and come up with a drawing illustrating a suggested order. However, we have now adopted a substantially larger commitment. It looks like our group is now responsible for figuring out when the ideal planting times would be, so that we would have the best harvest for exhibition night. We definitely are going to need to collaborate with some of the other teams, because there are some resources (such as a list of growing times and specifications) that I know other students have created. One thing that our team needs to be diligent about is making sure that we know what the class is doing so that we don't do any unnecessary work.
Today, we secured the white board to the side of the shed and began designing how the information will be displayed on it. We figure that half of it should be set aside for a scale drawing of the garden's layout, while the other half should display vital information (harvest dates, bed contents, etc). It will definitely be important for us to clearly label which beds are occupied and how far into their growing process they are, to assure that no accidents occur.
I hope this wasn't too vague. If there are any questions, leave me a comment and I'll do my best to answer everything.
