Ratings and Reviews
Just found out how to select varieties!
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”
Really Really liking this app
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.
Polished and useful 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.
