Do You Suffer From ‘Scope Creep’ in Your Garden?

Domain crawl is something that can infiltrate you when you work in a project in the garden. If you are not aware of the term, it is often used to manage the project to describe when the project changes over time and is not defined or controlled properly.

In other words, if you do not have a very clear idea of ​​what you want to achieve, and if what you intend to achieve turns into something much larger than you originally want, this can be described as the crawl of the range. This is related to the concept of Mission Creep, which also describes the expansion of a project that exceeds its original scope.

Do you have a clear idea of ​​what you want to do?

In a garden, as in the office environment, it may be important to start with a clear vision of your goals. If you don’t have a clear idea of ​​the place you want to end, it will become more difficult for you to get there. It will be much easier for a small and slow solution to the balloon to something much larger and perhaps overwhelming.

Whether we are talking about garden design, creating a new garden, or just setting on a specific day to complete the task of a specific garden, not defining clear goals and specific domain parameters or a project can lead to a wide range of problems.

It is important that you have a specific scope in mind that it is important because, otherwise, jobs can go out of control. Without parameters, you may feel that you do not reach anywhere, given that there are always more things you can do in the garden.

Determination of the region

If you are designing and planning – so for a specific area. Although you need to look at the big image, do not tend to increase the size of the project area after starting. Determine its parameters from the beginning.

Be clear about food goals

If you are creating a new garden, decide the growing areas of the foreground, and make sure that you are clear about the amount of food you want to grow and the areas you want to get from the project.

Be clear in the beginnings and ends

For each garden task, make sure you are clear in the task scope and at any point you can think about the task “done”.

Do you let projects grow at work?

I know I can be guilty like this like anyone else. Sometimes, I began completing a specific small task in the garden only to find myself after several hours after separating it into a larger project and sometimes completely different.

For example, on the last day, I started choosing some bungers and only aims to reduce a little to reach the berries, but I have finished doing a full set of pruning and reducing before I get the berries inside.

If you have time, this type of lack of clarity and concentration is not always a problem. But problems can arise if it runs out, for example, a long time to complete the project that I have taken now or if the whole thing is suddenly magic.

With any project in a garden, it is better to focus and start in small. If you are like me, the desire to create a new growing area may lead to expanding your ambition and creating eight new beds, for example, and although you may feel happy early with your hard work, you may end up cursing your scope later.

Domain crawl of this type does not lead to a tired and painful feeling at the end of the day. This can cause a set of problems if you have taken more than you can handle it. If the projects are very large in a garden, they can take a life of their own and sometimes go out of your will.

If you want to make sure that things are going smoothly in your garden and avoiding making things feel confused or like a lot of important works, you need to be aware of the crawl of the range and try to avoid this wherever possible.

Determining a clear scope for each project in a garden will help you feel accomplished in every completed task, regardless of its size or a few of it. The feeling of this achievement will mean that you can continue to do so and always keep the joy and satisfaction in your garden.
