Garden planners are a great way of planning your landscape and designing your garden. You can use this tool to make a map and schedule when you will plant the plants. This will give you an idea of when to plant particular plants in your garden. Also, you can check for gaps in your gardening plan and fill them as quickly possible. To view your plan month by month, you can click on the Months drop-down box.
There are many types of garden planners that you can find online or in the app store. The Veggie Garden Planner (which has many features) is the most widely used. You can pick the area that you wish to cover with plants, and how many will fit into each square inch. There are also videos on how to grow various kinds of vegetables. The app doesn't have a built in plant list. It also doesn't calculate how many plants are needed for each bed. You can still download a printed version of the garden plan.
Artifact Interactive offers a free Garden Planner. This is a well-known gardening software. It allows for you to create a plan of your garden in 2D space. You can add plants and trees to your garden. You can also add fencing and pathways. You can also add labels to your plot. This software is easy-to-use and compatible with all operating systems. It is important to remember that the software does not give information about the specific needs of different plants.

The Smart Gardener is a handy tool that allows you to enter your family size and then drill down to specific plants you want to grow. It will then recommend the best plants for you and your family. The app also lets you add or remove plants depending on the type soil. Once you have the layout created, you can save or print it. A number of garden planners are available for free download.
The Garden Planner Plus is a fantastic planning tool. You can purchase the app to gain access to different sections. 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 can also calculate how many plants you can grow in the space. Many of these apps are for those who don’t like math.
FAQ
What seeds should be started indoors?
A tomato seed is the best seed to start indoors. Tomatoes can be grown quickly and they bear fruit all year. If you are growing tomatoes in pots, take care when you transplant them to the ground. The soil could dry out if you plant too early. This could lead to root rot. Be aware of diseases like bacterial wilt which can quickly kill plants.
Do I need any special equipment?
It's not true. All you need are a trowel or shovel and a watering can.
How do I know what type of soil I have?
You can tell by looking at the color of the dirt. You will find more organic matter in darker soils that those of lighter colors. Another option is to test the soil. These tests determine the amount of nutrients in the soil.
When is the best time to plant flowers?
Planting flowers in spring is easier when the temperature is lower and the soil remains moist. If you live in a cold area, plant flowers only after the first frost. The ideal temperature for growing plants indoors is around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
What time should I plant herbs in my garden?
Spring should be when the soil temperature reaches 55 degrees F. For best results, plant them in full sunlight. To grow basil indoors, place seedlings in pots filled with potting mix and keep them out of direct sunlight until they sprout leaves. Once plants start growing, move them into bright indirect light. After about three weeks, transplant them to individual containers and continue to water them regularly.
Can I grow fruit trees in pots?
Yes! Yes, pots are possible to grow fruit trees if space is tight. To prevent tree rot, make sure the pot has drainage holes. The pot should be deep enough to hold the rootball. This will keep the tree from becoming stressed.
