Features

Everything your vegetable garden needs.

From mapping your first bed to tracking your last harvest — every feature is connected to your garden grid.

Live weather in 3D

A day in your 3D garden.

The 3D view follows your real sun and your hour-by-hour forecast. Dawn light, passing cloud, wind in the crops, rain, frost and snow, the sunset, and fireflies after dark: what you see is your garden as it is right now.

An empty bed to a full plan in a minute.

Tell it the size of your space, your climate, your soil, how you like to grow and what you want to eat. It lays out beds, paths and companion-friendly plantings for you, then hands the plan over to change however you like.

  • Raised beds: how many, what size, with wide paths between
  • Pick more than one thing you want to grow
  • Every planting comes with its own sowing, watering and feeding schedule

Location Advisor

Find the sunniest spot before you dig.

Hold your phone up and follow the sun's path across your own sky. The advisor collects each sun along the way to measure what shades the spot through the day, and how that changes between summer and winter.

  • Guided camera view, smooth wherever you point it
  • Hours of full sun, dappled light and shade
  • Saved spots to compare before you build

Growth Simulator

See the season before it happens.

Drag the slider and every crop grows at its own real pace, smoothly, in 2D and 3D. See what will tower over what, when the corn will shade the lettuce, and how full each bed will be at harvest.

  • Each crop at its own stage, not one size fits all
  • Works in the 2D plan and the 3D view
  • Spot crowding and shade before you plant
Fun 3D events

Your garden has visitors.

Every few hours the garden is set a little differently: a watering can left on an empty patch, a rabbit at the edge of the lawn, hens scratching about. Birds drop in, butterflies drift over the beds by day and fireflies glow after dark.

Plant Health

Yellow leaves? Find out why.

Describe what you can see, such as yellowing, spots, holes or wilting, and get the likely causes for that plant with a clear action plan. Every plant in the encyclopedia carries full health guidance, from common vegetables to flowers and herbs.

  • Symptom-based, plant by plant
  • Pests, diseases, water and feeding problems
  • Turn the fix into a task with a reminder

Water & feed

Every bed on its own schedule.

Set how often each planting needs water and feed, log it in a tap, and see at a glance what is overdue. Rain in the forecast and frost warnings show up in the morning, so you know when to skip the hose or cover the seedlings.

  • Watering intervals per planting
  • Fertiliser advice by crop and growth stage
  • Morning reminders on your phone

Harvest

Pick at the right time, and remember it.

Each planting counts down to its harvest window, with crop-specific signs to look for. Log what you pick by weight or count, and next season you will know exactly what was worth growing.

  • Harvest windows for every crop
  • Yield log by planting and season
  • Season history to plan the next one
