Using plant markers in your organic garden is one of the best ways to keep track of what’s happening in your garden. After all, you’re creating a beautiful garden that will feed you and your family, so why not make it the best?
Whether you’ve used plant markers before or not, you should know that not all plant labels and markers are created the same. There are a lot of labels on the market that seem convenient but will end up giving you trouble in the long run.
Because there are so many different options out there, we wanted to share some tips and tricks for choosing the best plant markers for your garden. Let’s get started!
1.Customization
Your garden plant markers will only serve you if they can be customized, otherwise what’s the point? Choose makers that can be handwritten or laser printed with the key information you need for maximum convenience.
2.Color
Plant markers can be as subtle or bold as you prefer. Think about your preference and choose garden labels that will either blend in with all of the green in your garden or stand out with a terra cotta color that demands attention. If you select a bold color, you’ll be able to immediately find the info you need when tending to your plants.
3.Materials
Let’s be honest, you started your own organic garden because you’re an environmentally conscious person who has high standards for what you and your family eat. You’re not the type of person to pick up some cheap plastic labels that are horrible for the environment and last only one growing season. Pick up a set of MCG BioMarker plant labels that were made of recycled plastics and corn cob fibers.
4.Durability
Who says you have to buy new labels every year? No one!
Choose a plant marker that can be updated each year when you choose different species or plants. Your labels will easily peel off of the MCG BioMarkers so you can have a fresh start each season. Enjoy the ability to remove them from the ground with a slight amount of pressure so you don’t have to worry about breaking them!
5.Various Sizes
Because different vegetables have different growth requirements, there’s no one-size-fits-all plant label. MCG BioMarkers come in three sizes so they can be seen amongst your tall and short plants:
- 25″ long, 1.875″ x 2.875″ flat marking surface
- 13″ long, 2.5″ x 4.0″ angled top and flat marking surface
- 24″ long, 5″ x 4″ angled top and flat marking surface
When it comes to creating an organized garden, one of the best things you can do is use plant makers. Not only will they give you garden a professional look and feel, but they’ll also give you all the information you could possibly need while tending to your plants.
