Editorial method

How a guide gets its steps, how a future product note will be labeled, and who fixes a mistake.

Responsible editor: Ryan Moalemi. Updated November 9, 2026.

Sources

Growing instructions prefer university extension services and public agencies: Penn State, Maryland, Utah State, Mississippi State, Iowa State, Illinois, Cornell, the University of California, the University of Massachusetts, LSU AgCenter, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, among others. A claim that names a number should name the page it came from, including the tray size that page used.

A blog, a seed seller, or a product page is not used as the source of a sowing rate. Seller pages may later document what a package contains, after the package is checked.

Evidence labels

Products, gifts, and commissions

No product is recommended on the live site yet, and no affiliate link is live. When that changes, a card will name the exact item, who it suits, one limitation, the evidence label, and the date the link was checked. Gifted products will be labeled as gifts. Paid placements are not accepted. A normal commission link, if one is added, will be disclosed on the page before the link and will use a sponsored relationship marker.

Prices will be shown only when the source and the program rules allow it, with the date. Historical extension prices stay labeled as historical. They are not current offers.

Updates and corrections

Ryan Moalemi owns product checks, corrections, and content updates. Write to ryan@smallspacegreens.com. A corrected sentence keeps the source link. A removed product stays off the page until someone checks the replacement.
