The 3 week "month", ;) - Veggie - 25-11-2024

I need inspiration and who better to ask than the brainy/nutty people here. Big Grin

As you know, I'm trying to garden, using a 3 week rotation plan - Wk 1 = Roots & Shoots; Wk 2 = Fruits & Wk 3 = Leaves. I'm getting ready for 2025 and some sort of diary/action plan is needed. Conventional diaries are in months of 4 weeks which doesn't adapt easily to my 3 week rotation.

I'm looking for a word to describe an interval of "3 weeks". There are 17 of these "3 weeks" in a year. The year starts on the first Monday and ends on the last Sunday. The odd days at the  end and beginning of the year are "rest" days. Big Grin

Needless to say, it doesn't have to be a "real" word. Wink Something like:-

Threeks
Trims
Triplans
Triplots
Trill
Trio
Tricks
Trickles

 Thanks SC - you've inspired me. Idea ...........They're going to be called a "Tic" from "lunatic". Big Grin Each time I complete a "Tic" I award myself a big Tick.  Big Grin

My Lunatic Veggie Calendar is made up of:-

17 Tics of 3 weeks each.
Each Tic has 3 branches, lasting a week each - Roots/Shoots, + Strip 1; Fruits + Strip 2 ; Leaves + Strip 3.
Each Branch has 7 Veg Plots or VPs.

That's it. Simple. Big Grin
