Can anyone suggest a freeware garden journal/diary ? Have done a thorough

Not freeware, I couldn't find any nice freeware for this
purpose either.
But for $20, you can get MyGardenJournal which is a very
nice little program that has a journal, weather log, seed
and plant inventory, and various other features. I like
this program, it's a sweet little program.

You can download it and try it for 30 days to see if you
like before registering it (paying for it). The trial
version has full functionality.
I am also using a different type of program called
'SeedPlanner'. It's more of a scheduling program, plus a
database of growing information for various plants. I think
this is EXTREMELY useful and I'm very happy with it. It
costs $30, and the trial version has very limited
functionality - but enough to let you know if you want to
pay for it or not.

For people who can remember when to sow each successive
planting of five varieties of lettuce, for instance, so as
to have a continuous harvest of the different types,
SeedPlanner probably wouldn't be very useful. But I forget
these things. SeedPlanner is extremely useful for me.
It also has a very useful database of information on growing
many plants: seed-pretreatment, sowing conditions, various
other information.
