A well planned vegetable garden is a productive vegetable garden. In this video we guide you through the process of producing the perfect design for your garden, including 5 key questions you should ask as you plan what you will grow.
We start by demonstrating how to plan your garden by hand using sketches and tables to draw up a schedule of what needs planting when. Then we take a look at how Garden Planner apps can help with this process and what advantages they bring.
If you love growing your own food, why not take a look at our online Garden Planner which is available from several major websites and seed suppliers:

This is a wonderful application. I used the garden planner last year and look forward to planning my new 2014 garden.
I think itâs really important that someone created this! Thank you!
Your videos are so well done! Very clear, concise and informative. I feel so much more confidence and inspiration in gardening now, thank you much!
i really love this i just wonder how much time it takes to get this all figured out.
Trying it this year. Like my phone's GPS lady, but for gardening.
What a great tool for group gardening...will look to try!
This is a good application,

Thanks so much this was really helpful Iâd love to try the garden planner
Hi there. You can enjoy a free trial of the Garden Planner at www.growveg.com :-)
Lovely video content! Apologies for chiming in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Parlandealey Impetigo Goodbye Process (should be on google have a look)? It is a great exclusive guide for finding some amazing landscaping designs for your home minus the headache. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my cooworker at last got cool results with it.
Very helpful video, thank you!
Wow, what a helpful tool! We will probably be using that when it is time for us to get our garden ready. God bless! :)
I have to admit it was a great video.
Where have you been all my life!!! lol this is from 2014, now is 2020!! Are you still doing this? This is a major tutorial for a newbe like me. I'm in Florida and need to know what to grow here. I'll look for this app, Thanks!!
Great that you've discovered us! Yes, we're still producing videos every few weeks. Be sure to subscribe! :-)
It's farmville for real!
TOTALLY COOL!
Youâre the best
Great app! however i would like to know how can i use in south hemisphere (i'm in Brazil). I'm a new owner of a big place an i would like to produce my own vegetables.
Hi Rosana. The Garden Planner uses your local weather station to set your local climate data. It means users in the Southern Hemisphere can also use the Garden Planner to give accurate forecasts for their crops.
This is just a review of an app to subscribe to
We do think the software is genuinely useful though - it can really help you to get the most from your garden.
Thank you for explaining the Garden Planner app. This video was very informative for me.
Yes... it explained everything except how to actually plan a garden. This explains how to use a piece of software. Not what to consider when planning a garden. Garbage in = Garbage out. In other words, I can play chess online without ever understanding the game. How to play chess... you move pieces on a board. Oh thank you for such wonderful teaching.
hello I cant get on the website.Can you please plan it on papper so I can copy itđ
Every garden is different so it's hard to give a one size fits all example. The website link is here: www.growveg.com
wow thx!!!!!
Does this garden planner work for locations in Africa?
Hi Rene. The Garden Planner works for South Africa only currently.
Thanks for the great information. I love to garden and always looking for ways to improve my harvest. How large should you let your seedlings grow before transplanting?
Great vid. I miss my garden...
Hi seedlings can be transplanted when they have four true leaves not counting the seed leaves (seed leaves are always the first two leaves that appear) hope this helps
Which software/app you are using please send me the link
Hi there Zahid. It's called the Garden Planner and here's the link: www.growveg.com/garden-planner-intro.aspx
Is this App still available? I was not able to find it in my play store
You can find our more about the Garden Planner from: www.growveg.com/garden-planner-intro.aspx
What a great video!
wish I could have had a heads up that this was basically a long shill for an app rather than a discussion
Hopefully you gleaned a few helpful tips nonetheless Sean. Do check out our other videos too - we do mention the Garden Planner from time to time, but generally try to keep it light.
could you please tell me what's the app name?
thanks
Of course, it's called the Garden Planner: www.growveg.com/garden-planner-intro.aspx
good comprehensive guide.
nice
What is the name of this garden planner?
It's called the Garden Planner. More on it here: www.growveg.com/garden-planner-intro.aspx
Has your software now got a 3D view where you can view from up above, but at angles?
It hasn't Luke, no, sorry - just the 2D plan. The software is being updated though, with an even more user-friendly interface.
Is there a specific garden planner this is talking about? if so, what is the name of it?
Hi Nancy, yes you can find out more here: www.growveg.com/garden-planner-intro.aspx
You have on the planting list Sow what does Sow mean? is it another Word for Germination? trying to do this for First time trying learn. I live in NY last Frost will be about Mother's Day May 10 2015. With that said want to try plant stuff indoors month's / Month before I plant it. Don't really have Idea where I'll plant them yet have some what of an Idea but Trial an Error I'll learn but growing it indoors when to start each thing is the Challenge rest is easy planted Tomatoes month ago about 6 inches tall lol. To early lol but did go to that Garden planner web site just looking for days grow them wondering about Sun Flowers too. so lets say sun flower talks total of 4 Months til Harvest should you plant it month and half indoors before planting it outdoors that about right? I know you can plant it indoors when ever but whens right time?
Chicagoman36 Sow means different things to different people but here we mean starting seeds off indoors. Each type of plant requires more or less time indoors before you can transfer them outside (e.g. for eggplant it's often 8 weeks but for squash it's about 3) and also plants are more or less tolerant to cold outside (leeks and cabbage are resilient, basil not at all etc). That's why our Garden Planner is useful as it does all the calculations for you, using your local weather station data from 20-30 years.
You reap what you sow. You really reap the need for a dictionary.
Is this adaptable to other countries/climates?
Carol Ann Fitzgerald Hi Carol, yes the Garden Planner works across most countries. We have climate data for the US, Canada, most of Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. It will work in other countries too but you'd need to know planting times.
thanks, trying it out now :)
will south Africa's plan work for India ?
Where do I find this plan
This plan was made a few years ago now, specifically for the video. It was made using the Garden Planner, details for which can be found here: www.growveg.com/garden-planner-intro.aspx
skynet in the allotment now
where do I get this app
From here: www.growveg.com
could you please throw some light on building good soil?thanks,renu
Hi Dhruv we have lots of articles on this here: www.growveg.com/guides/categories/soil/
No... because this video doesn't even do what the title says. This explains how to use a piece of software, not how to plan a garden. Planning a garden involves understanding why you plant what you plant where you plant it and what to plant around it, etc.... not how to make a pretty software representation of your garden that will explain nothing, and teach you nothing about planning your garden.
Very informational!

wowwwwww, good job
How can I find this specific planner? There are lots of them to filter through!

Junji Yamamoto You can take out a free trial here www.growveg.com/freetrial.aspx
Hi there. I found your video through the vegetablegardening.com website. Do you know who owns that site and how to contact them? Thanks.
Hi Susan. No, unfortunately we don't know how to contact them, sorry.
Thank you. I had noticed your video on their site, so thought you might know the site owner. Cheers.

Is this software available for Amman, Jordan?
The Garden Planner will work in any country in the world. The predicted dates for planting won't be accurate however - we only have climate data for US, Canada, Western Europe, Australia, NZ and South Africa at the moment. However, you can enter your own planting dates and it will then use those.
Good planning can make all the difference to the amount and quality of food produced by your vegetable garden.
In this video we present 5 questions that are at the heart of good garden planning and show how to draw up the plans you require. We then demonstrate how the Garden Planner reduces the need for research and guess-work, so that in a very short space of time you can create a personalised plan for your most successful garden ever:

where can I purchase the garden planner app
Hey what you doing
I am so glad you did It.
My raised bed garden is 5 ft deep. Husband thought it would help with my knees and back not to bend over. I have this same problem for 2 years with my tomato,pepper,bean leaves curling and looking like dino kale. I have had soil tested. Added osmocote &calcium. Is there a disease that the soil test wouldn't pick up on? Thanks
angela sheppard Ive seen a video about this. If there is any chance that soil or compost you have used might have been sprayed with a weedkiller this can create what you describe. Using community compost or if there are neighbours spraying or other accidental contamination somehow.
Helen Brown hmmm,this could be an answer. I thought it mite have been in the horse compost but it may have been in the leaves i got from the neighbors in the neighborhood. I wonder how long it takes to dissipate?
I hate to be the bearer of bad news :( you could be loking at 5-7 years before it its healthy again. I will try and find the name for it and u can research from there x
angela sheppard its caled leaf curl. Herbicides added to pasture that horses have grazed so it gets into the manure xx
Thanks for your info

How to Plan a Vegetable Garden: Design Your Best Garden Layout
Great information.
can someone tell me what is it called the area the plant is planted? is it called layout?
The area you plant up is usually called the vegetable bed, if you're planting vegetables. But generally anywhere that is planted up is referred to as a bed or border. The size, orientation and composition of the bed is what you would call its layout.

16 carrots in 1 square foot can't be right, surely?
The square foot gardening system does allow for dramatically closer spacing because of the extra-rich growing medium the plants are grown in. 16 carrots is possible in ideal conditions.
So they still reach a good size even with less root space?
They will reach a slightly smaller size but the overall yield from the same area of ground will be greater.
Thanks.

It's a advertisement. Swell.
We do try to balance out the occasional mention of our software with many videos that don't mention it. We've chosen not to monetise our video channel, which is why you don't get any advertisements interrupting it. But the occasional brief mention of our software help to justify that and pay the bills. Please do take a look at our other videos - there's lots to explore and hopefully find useful.
If I had know this was a sales pitch for a Garden Program - I wouldnât have started the Video. MisleadingâŠ.
Some of yuor videos are good, but I really do feel you try to flog your garden planner software too much, half this video is about the software rather than useful information.
We try to limit how often we promote the Garden Planner. We don't allow adverts on our channel, and the occasional mention of the Garden Planner helps to make a little money to pay our bills. I hope you enjoy the rest of our content anyhow, and thanks for watching.
Hi @@GrowVeg thanks for the reply, I can understand where you are coming from, you do give helpful tips and are providing content for free.
At the same time I assume most of your audience do not have the software so much of the videos focused on the software become a bit irrelevant to many of your viewers.
I have also tried the Growveg software which I found useful to some extent, although it would be nice to have more varieties options when planting fruit trees or root stocks etc.
My biggest gripe with the software is that it is a pay monthly suscription which I feel is too high. If it was say ÂŁ10 to purchase outright I would seriously consider it. I am an avid gamer also and so am aware of the development costs of building software and I am quite confident your software although good was created by a small team and so your development costs can't be that high and so the cost annually for me to purchase the software just feels too extortionate.
Overall though I do think your channel is helpful so keep up the good work :-)
Thanks for the kind remarks, appreciated. The development involved a considerable amount of work and the software is constantly being updated and refined. We reckon the annual subscription cost is more than outweighed by the extra volume of produce you can grow as a result of fine-tuning spacings and cropping plans.
I hope you continue to enjoy the videos anyhow - thanks for watching!
