The past couple years I have been using obsidian and creating file systems for things like cooking recipes, computer investigations, and daily to do's. For those familiar, it is an extremely powerful application for tracking, creating, and linking thoughts. Any thoughts. Highlight on the linking capa ilities. I am wanting to expand this process to my gardening to aid in keeping track and replicating things that work season after season. I'd also like to use this to keep track of cultivars, what is planted where/garden maps.

The problem is, I suffer greatly from decision paralysis and since it is such an in-depth system, I'm struggling where to start. Does anyone use obsidian for their gardening adventures? Would like to be able to create a template that can be used for each planted species to track important events such as planting, germination rates, harvest, as well as things listed above. Any guidance or experience appreciated!

I have just downloaded this interesting software, and begun organizing some writing ideas with it. How interesting!

I am an inveterate MindMapper, and that's probably what I would still go for were I trying to organize all the gardening stuff you've mentioned. This program looks like it is highly interconnectable, but I would want to see as much stuff on one page as possible, which I haven't yet figured out how to do with Obsidian.

It is great for mind mapping. People often refer to it as a second brain.. you can also view a map of everything and how it is interconnected, giving you that picture of how things relate. There are also many community plugins such as excalidraw (drawing, of course. But simplified with precoded shapes. Also can label parts of the drawing to link to where that item is found in your notes)

There is also a dataview plugin, the options are endless that's my problem. I hope you enjoy it!
