I'd be interested in knowing what supplies (purchased or scavenged) you experienced gardeners would recommend stocking in advance.
I'd also like to know which fertilizers you prefer?
Here is my list (not all acquired yet):
General
Garden twine
Wooden stakes
Landscape fabric & staples (to discourage weeds)
Composter
Watering
55 gallon plastic drums for water collection
For Seed-Starting
Heirloom seeds
Potting trays for seed-starting
Seed starter soil mix
Cold frame
Old pots for covering tender transplants
Inoculant
Soil Amendments
Pelletized garden lime
Extending Growing Season
PVC tubing (for erecting visqueen tents over garden beds)
Visqueen (for making tents to protect against frost)
Pest discouragement
Vinyl coated wire fencing
Fabric row covers (to protect crops from insects)
Berry netting
Small animal traps
Old CD's to hang to discourage birds
For Fruit Trees
Dormant oil (what brand do you folks recommend?)
Fruit tree spray system (how do you spray your trees)

Buckets with handles to gather fruit & vegetables (I use 2 to 5 gallon buckets from a bakery)
