Frequently Asked Questions

Think of it as your gardening sidekick. We help you figure out when to sow, transplant, and harvest based on where you actually garden, not some generic calendar that might be meant for someone three counties over. Your dates adjust to your location, so you can actually trust what you're seeing.

Honestly? Anyone who grows stuff. If you're just starting out and need some clarity, we've got you. If you've been gardening for years and just want a solid reference point, we've got you too. Whether it's herbs on your windowsill or a full-blown allotment, use as much or as little as you need.

Because gardening advice that works in Cornwall might be terrible in Edinburgh. Frost dates and growing seasons can vary massively even between towns that are fairly close. We tailor everything to your spot so you're not guessing.

We look at typical frost patterns for your area, then work backwards and forwards from there based on what each plant needs. This includes when to start seeds indoors, when it's safe to transplant, and when you'll likely be harvesting. You'll usually see a range of dates rather than one "perfect" day, because gardening doesn't really work that way.

Just use the location picker at the top of the page. Everything updates automatically, including your schedules and "what to plant now" suggestions.

A plant is just the thing you're growing, like tomatoes or basil. A guide is how you're growing it. Some plants can be started indoors and transplanted, or sown straight outside. We give you both options when they exist, so you can pick whichever fits your setup.

Steps are basically your to-do list for that plant: sowing, transplanting, feeding, maybe some pruning, and eventually harvesting. Each one comes with a suggested time window and quick instructions so you're not left wondering what to do next.

We do! Lots of plant pages will show you which plants get along and which ones you might want to keep apart. Take it as a helpful nudge rather than gospel. Every garden's different and your mileage may vary.

It's your growing space. Could be your back garden, your allotment, a balcony, or a greenhouse. Each one can have its own location and list of plants you're tracking.

You'll pick a growing method (if there's more than one) and choose when you're planning to sow it. We'll then build out your timeline with all the steps you'll need to follow through the season. Dead simple.

Absolutely. Mark things done, skip steps that don't apply to you, and jot down notes about what happened. It's really handy for remembering what worked (and what didn't) when you're planning next year.

Yep. Keeping logs helps you spot patterns over time, especially when you're comparing seasons. You can record notes and key events like feeding, pruning, and harvests. What's available depends on your plan level.

On some plans, yeah. Really handy if you're gardening with a partner, family member, or allotment buddy. Everyone can see what needs doing and stay on the same page.

The free plan's great if you're growing casually or just getting started. Paid plans are for when things get more serious, with more gardens, more plants, better history tracking, and sharing features. Depends what you need, really.

Course you can. You'll keep access for whatever time you've already paid for, and then things revert based on the plan rules.

Here's what to double-check:

• Is your location set correctly?
• Are you looking at the right guide for how you're actually growing?
• Remember we show time windows, not exact dates. There's wiggle room.

If it still seems off, drop us a message with the plant name and your location.
