Garden Plan

So I have mapped out my small space so I know what I am planting where. I am not THAT organized to figure out what should be planted when something else comes out so I will just play it by ear and keep things relegated to the squares I've set out.  I think I'll have tonnes of veg (at least I hope I will) and I will keep it going by planting in 2 week intervals to keep a continuous supply.  We'll see how this year goes and I might try to switch things up next year and maybe I'll be more organized :) (the circles below are plants that will be done in pots of sorts).
I think I will start planting my Brandywine tomatoes next week and my peppers as well.  I have ordered some Lunchbox tomatoes and small yellow "tumbling tom" cherry tomatoes so hopefully they will get here next week and I can start them as well.  I think I'll enjoy earlier tomatoes as opposed to late ones.  Maybe I'll start the Lunchbox ones near the end of February.

Here is a picture of what my garden looks like now.  Right now I have my downspouts directed into my garden to keep excess rain away from the house.  In the summer I direct them into handy rain barrels.  It looks so cold and desolate...and only 6 more weeks of winter (so says the miserable groundhog) ... hopefully they go fast.
