A garden planner can be a great tool to plan your landscape or design your garden. You can create a plan, and then set planting dates. This will help you know exactly when to plant specific plants in your garden. You can also view gaps in the garden plan and make changes as necessary. Click on the Months drop down box to view your plan month-by-month.
You can buy many types of garden planning apps online. The Veggie Garden Planner (which has many features) is the most widely used. You can choose which area to cover with plants and see how many plants will fit into each square foot. Videos are also available that provide tips and tricks for growing different types of vegetables. This app does NOT have a builtin plant list. You cannot calculate the amount of plants that you will need to make each bed. You can still download a printed version of the garden plan.
Artifact Interactive's Garden Planner is a very popular gardening program. It allows you create a 2-dimensional garden plan. You can also fill your garden with pre-made plants, such as shrubs and trees. You can also add fencing and pathways. You can even add labels and markers to your plot. This software is very easy to use, and it is compatible with all platforms. But, this software doesn't give any information about the plant needs.
The Almanac Garden Planner is a great program that lets you make full-yard plans for your garden. You can switch between square-foot gardening mode and the program will tell you how many square feet each type of plant needs. You can even create planting schedules to be printed for specific areas within your yard. The app can be used for free for up to one week. You can also download the app, but you have to register before you can use it.
The Smart Gardener tool allows you to enter the size of your family and drill down to the specific plants you desire to grow. The app will suggest which plants are best for you. The app allows you to add and remove plants based on your soil type. Once you have created a layout, it is easy to print it and save it for future reference. You can also download free garden planners.
The Garden Planner Plus App is a great tool for planning. You can purchase the app to access various parts of the app. The free version of the app is useful but it's not the best for everyone. It allows you to enter the exact measurements of your garden. It will calculate the number and size of plants you are allowed to grow in your area. Many of these apps are for those who don’t like math.
