Yardique exists to help homeowners and gardeners solve real problems with practical, usable advice. This page explains how that content gets made, checked, and kept current, so readers know what to expect from anything published here.
Who Writes and Reviews Our Content
Yardique is written by Nathan McPhail. You can read about his background and experience on our About page. The same person who writes an article is responsible for making sure it holds up, there’s no separate byline-for-hire process behind the scenes.
How We Research
Articles start with research from reputable sources: horticultural references, trade publications, manufacturer documentation, and government guidance where it applies. Where a topic has an established, correct answer, we aim to reflect that. Where a recommendation comes from personal experience or judgment rather than an established fact, we try to make that distinction clear rather than present opinion as settled information.
How We Review and Fact-Check
Before publishing, articles are checked for factual accuracy, clarity, and practical usefulness. Anything touching safety, electrical work, gas appliances, structural changes, or chemical use is checked against appropriate professional or authoritative sources rather than taken on faith. Product claims are checked against manufacturer specifications where applicable.
Keeping Content Current
Gardening and home improvement information changes: products get discontinued, techniques improve, and safety guidance gets updated. We periodically revisit older articles and update them when something we’ve recommended, or said, no longer holds up.
Editorial Independence
Yardique earns money through affiliate links and advertising, details are on our Affiliate & Advertising Disclosure page. That never determines which products we recommend or how we write about them. No brand or retailer pays for placement or a favorable review on this site.
Corrections
If you spot something inaccurate, outdated, or unclear on Yardique, we want to know about it. Contact us with the article and the issue, and we’ll review and correct it where warranted.
