I’m a beginner in the world of gardening. I have read everything I can get my hands on, but it is all a little overwhelming. I was looking for a gardening calendar, but found so much more. The more I look into this app, the more I find. I do have a greenhouse to help in extending the growing season during the cooler months in order to avoid our blustering summers. I would like to see some greenhouse guidance added. It maybe already be there, but I haven’t found it yet. I’ve been seeing a lot of gardening hacks that support more organic gardening such as the use of coffee grounds and epson salts to name a few. A section on hacks might be nice. This would then put everything in one place. I’ve already started tomatoes and will need to transplant soon. I did learn the proper way to do so which I haven’t seen anywhere else. I’m in love. Keep up the amazing work. Right now this is totally free with no hidden surprises which is so rare in the app world. I realize developing something like this takes time and money and sometimes donations are just enough. In just ask that you don’t eventually price me out of this.

I’ve been using this app about a week, seeing if I want to replace my spreadsheet and paper system… it seemed generally useful at first, but not much more than the paper veggie gardening calendar our local extension office puts out… but I just figured out that if you tap on a veggie in your garden plan, you can add notes and pick a variety! **FEATURE REQUESTS:**I do wish there were a way for me to track yields tied to location … I know what I’m predicted to yield but that’s not the same as having a record of actual yield and in which spot certain things did better or worse. I also plant heirloom varieties and wish there was a way to type my own variety label in. Also when you add a second variety of the same thing later, the things seem to be sorted in “order added” so you might have beets at the top and bottom of the list, rather than being sorted alphabetically and also sorted by “next action required”

I’m was trying to find a replacement for my paper, pencil color coded spreadsheet. This app is extremely simple to use. I am the furthest things from being technology savvy. Make sure you tap on a vegetable example lettuce you will be brought to another screen where you can choose the variety if your variety is not listed you can manually add it. The app gives you options asking if you need to purchase the seeds or already have them. Will you be purchasing as seedlings or growing your own. There are a few more options in that area as well. I used the note section in that area to add all the information from the back of the seed packet. Once you go through the list adding all the veggies you are planning on planting in your garden your home page will have changed. A list of the veggies your planting will be listed as things to do with dates. Giving you date ranges to purchase seeds/seedlings or start your seeds indoors, transplant and harvest. Click on an individual veggie to see the tasks, when you’ve completed that task click task completed. I’ve also used the note area to log all of my steps in detail, I am always experimenting with different growing methods I was able to add all of that info to the notes. I have only been using the app for about 1 week so far I really really like this app.

I’ve been on the market for a planning app and found this through a friend. After having used a paper calendar, this one has been a huge leg up. There are some minor issues which I expect will get worked out but I was able to get started and done in a about 30 mins. Most of that time was spent transferring dates from the paper calendar or the plant markers into the app. Once I was done, it gave me a nice planting/harvest chart that’s intuitive. I now know that I can expect to harvest my first tomato’s in 2 weeks! There are hidden gems like goal setting (10% Grow Your Own) that has potential, and the garden guides are a delight. Cute illustrations, uncluttered and free.
