The real-scale garden planner

Lay out your beds the way they actually are, in centimetres, then drag plants in at their true spacing. No more guessing how many seedlings fit a row.

Most planners give you a vague grid and let you cram in far more than will ever fit. Planting Season draws every bed to scale and gives every plant its real footprint, so the layout on screen is the layout in your soil.

Why it is better

  • Drawn to scale in centimetres. Set each bed to its real size and shape, so a 1.2 metre bed holds exactly what a 1.2 metre bed holds.
  • True plant spacing. Every plant takes up its real footprint, so you can see at a glance how many lettuces or how many tomatoes actually fit.
  • Companion checks built in. Put two plants that fight each other side by side and the planner warns you before you waste a season.
  • Sun and shade per bed. Tag each bed by how much sun it gets and the app flags a sun-loving crop dropped into a shady corner.
  • Tuned to your region. Only the crops that suit your climate and the month are offered, so your plan starts correct.

How to use it

1

Set up your beds

Add each bed at its real size and shape, and tag how much sun it gets through the day.

2

Drag plants in

Pull crops from the shelf straight into a bed. Each one lands at its true spacing so you see exactly what fits.

3

Grow and track

Everything you plant flows into My Garden with stages, watering and a harvest countdown.

How it connects to the rest

Your beds are the heart of the whole app. What you plant here feeds your daily tasks, your watering reminders, your harvest dashboard and your crop rotation. Compost and worm castings get suggested back into these beds, and your soil journal records what each bed has been fed.
