All notes in the garden are tagged with an epistemic status. The status is a rough indicator of the note’s maturity.

I use Maggie Appleton’s system:

  • 🌱 SeedlingsĀ for very rough and early ideas
  • 🌿 BuddingĀ for work I’ve cleaned up and clarified
  • 🌳 EvergreenĀ for work that is reasonably complete (though I still tend these over time).

Similar to Seeds, Trees and Fruits.
