Sentinel Resources
A Sentinel should pride themselves on being reliable, eager to learn, and ready to help out. These resources are meant to provide a starting point for anyone interested in learning more and expanding their skills.
Our Priorities
Repair
The free repair guide.
If you have a broken device or appliance, there is a near certain chance that iFixit has a guide and tools. This should be the first stop for anyone doing DIY electronic repair.
Sentinels believe in buying something for life.
That means great quality, affordability, and a company they are proud to support.
The tool kits and parts from iFixit get the Sentinel stamp of approval.
Home & Gardening
Before diving into gardening, you’ll need to know your USDA Plant Zone.
Each zone has its own set of crops with specific planting periods.
Once you know yours, a quick search: “[My Zone] plants by month”, will give you a better idea of how to prepare for the coming seasons.

Gardening Guide from Urban Farmer
Urban Farmer has an incredible library of information for fruits, vegetables, herbs, and so much more.
Select seeds is a great resource for learning how to get started, and they also sell seeds!
If you don’t have a reliable local nursery, this is a great place to start out.
There are a ton of great guides on Youtube for anyone starting seeds indoors. This video is well thought out and detailed, and a favorite of mine.
