Is this planner tool still available? I can't find a link to it on here or on Google.
Yes, it's available on several websites such as GrowVeg.com, gardenplanner.almanac.com, gardenplanner.motherearthnews.com and some seed suppliers. Thanks for asking!
I coul;dn't see that anyone else had asked, I would love to be able to add a layer in the program to add my house plan so that I can plan the whole garden as a narrative. I'm in LOVE with the function and use of the platform! THANK YOU!
Very glad to hear that you're enjoying the Garden Planner! The Garden Planner is currently focussed just on the garden but you can add your house edges and boundaries using the Shape tools (just below the Garden Object tool icon on the sidebar). We've even seen people plan things like wedding table seating using this and the text tool before!
I’m not trying to be sarcastic, but will I be able to access the last plan I made if there’s an EMF & we lose the internet? OK, then, if we lose the net for any reason?
You can print your plan at any stage and also the Plant List, so if you like to keep hard copies of everything then the Garden Planner definitely has you covered.
Impressive, well done! I am about to retire and love gardening but due to my scarce experience I was intimidated by the many factors to consider when planning my new garden - this app is going to be my best friend soon 😊
How do I use the planner for circular beds? I have two 3 x 3 foot round galvanized planters.
You can use the Shapes tool for circles (or ovals). You'll also find a number of circular containers in the Garden Objects which can be expanded to 3x3 if you prefer. We have 7-days-a-week Live Chat with our own Garden Experts within the Garden Planner (and they respond within seconds during normal hours) if you need any further help.
Just when I thought gardening couldn't be more fun! I am LOVING the Garden Planner app. Thanks for this tutorial. SO many great features. I can hardly wait until next year so I can use he planting rotation feature.
So glad you're enjoying using it Joanie! We have some amazing new features planned as well so the Garden Planner will continue to make planning for that abundant garden even more fun.
Amazing, I am so impressed by all the thought that went into this. I kept thinking, surely that's all it can do, right? But no, there's more! It has everything I never realized I wanted, but now I don't know how I did without :)
Thanks MM! We have been developing the Garden Planner for over 15 years now and we keep adding new features that we want for our own garden planning, so I'm glad you're finding them useful.
Wow, just wow! How very thoughtful and fun.
Just subscribed to the garden planner. Wish me luck, please! :)
Wishing you lots of luck, though hopefully you'll not need it now you have the Garden Planner! Remember, our expert gardeners are available via Live Chat on our website 7 days a week if you need help.
This is BAD ASS!
Thanks! We think so too! We've been developing the Garden Planner for over 15 years.
Is there an android app?
Thanks for your question. The Garden Planner is an online app. It already works on Android tablets and we'll be adding android phone support by the end of 2023. The Garden Journal already works on android phones.
This looks amazing sure hope I can figure it out!!
Thanks Karen. We have our own expert gardeners available 7-days a week through Live Chat within the Garden Planner if you get stuck at any point. We love helping people!
There may already be plans to add these but some suggestions for more plants to include in the software are; dragon fruit, pineapple, bannana, and mushroom.
Apart from mushroom, these are all coming. We're adding over 130 plants this year and these ones should be in by about April for areas with tropical or sub-tropical climates.
I've been looking for a software like this for years now. Sure I could draw mine out on graph paper or a spread sheet but the informaiton within it alone is worth the subscription. I am blown away by the utility within this software.
Wonderful! Thanks for the comment and we're so glad to hear that you are finding the Garden Planner useful.
If i may make a suggestion please. Adding in bathtubs as a growing area as well as raised garden beds. Have just started growing in bathtubs as i rent and if its in the ground i cant take it with me if i have to move house. Just a thought. Great vid. I am a black thumb, but have had some success. Yay me.!!
I'm all in. Fantastic!
Oh my goodness this looks amazing! The planner is everything I have been trying to keep up with on spreadsheets for ages. I simply cannot wait to start using it with my own allotment plan. Thank you!
This is soooo helpful! I can't wait to try this. My third year gardening and it keeps getting bigger and more confusing every year 😄 Thank you!
I cannot see companion plants on mine, is there some setting I need to change?
If you send us a screenshot (via the Contact page in the Garden Planner or on our website) of what you can see on screen, I'm sure we'll be able to help Julie. Also, let us know what device you are using (PC, Mac, iPad etc). Sometimes using View > Zoom Out on the browser toolbar will enable you to fit more on screen.
Hello, Will this app advise about companion plants or warn you if you're planting the wrong things together? thanks:)
Yes, a major part of the Garden Planner is our unique Evidence Based Companion Planting system which is all based on research. You just click a plant or plants on your plan to select them, then click the Show Companions button and it immediately shows a list of suitable companions and whether the benefit is one way or both ways. I demonstrate this at 4:10 onwards in the video. There actually isn't evidence to support 'bad' companions so we don't show those as they're mostly just folk-law (there are a one or two exceptions such as walnut, which we mention in the plant descriptions)
@@gardenplanner THANKYOU🙂
@@gardenplanner Mine does not show companion button!
Julie - just contact our customer service staff (through Live Chat on the Garden Planner) and we'll be happy to hel you locate it.
This looks so incredibly useful! Much better than my notes that I can never understand from the previous year! Thank you :)
Thanks Sarah! We're so glad you're finding it useful.
such a nice idea. does the application have any possibility for planning fertilizer? and if yes, how it covers all the dependencies like fertilizing history, soil type, ...?
The reasons you have mentioned - fertilizing history, soil type etc (and others like rainfall etc) - are why the Garden Planner can't recommend a fertilizing schedule, though we do mention the needs of each plant in the Grow Guides for each crop. Instead, we take the approach that you can record when you fertilize in the Garden Journal and tag it with the crop(s) through the season. Then, in the Garden Planner you can pull up that Journal History for each plant and it shows when you planted, watered, fertilized etc, along with any notes and photos you recorded and the harvest quantities so that you can use that to inform your planning and what you do the next year. That way you gradually learn from your garden and become more productive.
OMG! Wherre have you been all my life? I moved to a new home 1.5 years ago. They already had a garden established - well, a plot of earth dug with rows - and the established plants are a mish-mash of flowers, vines, bushes & hen-n-chicks *facepalm* Very little room for my veg! This will help me redesign & plan properly. I don't really want to till everything under, but some definately have to be moved. Any tips for moving the hen-n-chicks?
So good to hear that you're enjoying the Garden Planner and good luck with taking over your new garden. Hen-n-chicks tend to be pretty tough so you can dig up, move to somewhere with good drainage (or gritty soil) and sun, plant them, then water.
Thank you!! This is genius! About to plant my second garden ever when we move to our new house, so I am still just starting to learn, and this tool is SO useful, especially for companion planting.
Wonderful - we're glad this is proving useful. We spent a good portion of last year extending and improving the Evidence-Based Companion Planting feature so that it's the very best available and it's great to hear that it's proving useful.
Is there any way to get it to save the layer order? It's already infuriating to navigate through the map layers, and this is further compounded by the fact that any time I exit the map and reload the program is resets my layers and hides my structures/garden beds.
Currently there isn't a way to set a detailed layer order. The Garden Planner works with the existing layers of Shapes, Text, Plants, Irrigation and Structures but doesn't distinguish order within them. If you let our Customer Service staff know about what you're trying to achieve with layer order, there may be a way around this. That being said, this is a feature that has been requested and we hope to be able to introduce something in the future that matches what you're looking for.
This has been truly a godsend!! So excited to use this for my garden. It is going to make such a huge difference for me!
Wonderful - we're so glad to hear this is proving useful to you.
@@gardenplanner Thanks for the reply! Its been a phenomenal tool for planning and re-arranging. I have run into only one problem so far... Quite a few of the plants I already have in my garden are not part of the Garden Planner database. Is there a way to submit plant species to be added? I apologize if this has been answered already and I missed it. Thanks again!
@@bekkahtaylor You can add varieties of plants, so the easiest way is to find the plant that it's closest to and then add a variety of that. You can also customize varieties so they have their own spacing and sow/plant/harvest times. There are also some generic icons which you can add varieties to, such as Flower, Herb, Fruit Tree, Fruit Bush and Other. We do add new plant icons when we get a lot of requests for them but it takes a while to get the planting dates correct across all the many countries and climate zones, hence no way for you to add them yourself.
Is there a phone app? I've been using the desktop version for years and wasn't aware of a phone app! Or... do you just access the website itself through the browser on the phone?
You can just use the website through your browser. The Garden Planner works on modern iPads and some other tablets with enough power but currently not on phones (the screen is too small), though we may be able to change the layout on phones in the future. The Garden Journal works across all devices and you can use it to add notes, take photos and record planting, harvesting etc while out in the garden.
@@gardenplanner thanks! I don't often have my iPad in the garden with me so I'll have to try it on my phone and see how it goes.
@@gardenplanner i really missed the Grow Planner ios app. Still using it btw, without logged in my subscribed account because it is not upgreated anymore. it is handy when you're working in your garden. indeed i use the browser to do all the construction lines of the sketch :)
@Wavprodify phone compatibility is coming later this year!
This app design is genius. :) Huge props to the creators! Can't wait to start using it this year on my first mini veg patch.
Thanks - we're so glad that you're loving the Garden Planner!
This is my first time ever having an allotment and i can see myself using this tool alot. Such an amazing tool well done to all involved!
Thank you for your comment and good luck with that new allotment!
