Veggie Planner: Garden Planner

Veggie Planner is a vegetable garden planner that lets you lay out your beds, plant them square by square and get crop rotation and companion planting hints, season after season.

Draw your garden layout as a map of beds, fill each bed with vegetables, herbs and fruit, and keep track of varieties, sowing dates and how well each one did. Every plan has its own season (year), so the app can look back at earlier years and help you rotate your crops.

GARDEN LAYOUT AND BEDS
• Garden layout map with rectangular, square, oval and round beds that you can move, rotate and lock
• A planting grid in every bed: place plants cell by cell
• 69 built-in vegetables, herbs and fruits with icons, plus your own plants and varieties
• Sowing date and days to maturity show how many days are left until harvest
• Rate varieties from 1 to 5 stars so you remember what grew well
• Add the seed company and a photo of the seed packet (camera or gallery)
• Copy a plan to start a new season, rename plans, undo layout changes

COMPANION PLANTING AND CROP ROTATION
• Plants that don't grow well together are outlined in red, and each bed lists its good and bad neighbors
• Crop rotation hints when a plant family comes back to the same bed too soon (within 3 seasons, brassicas 4)
• A tip when a heavy feeder follows another heavy feeder
• These hints are based on traditional gardening practice. You decide what stays.

RAISED BED SOIL AND FERTILIZING
• Enter the real length, width and depth of each raised bed
• Soil calculator: volume in liters and cubic meters and the number of bags you need
• Layer presets for a raised bed mix, Hugelkultur and a yearly compost top-up
• Fertilizer log (date, product, amount) with a repeat interval, so you can see when the next feeding is due

PESTS AND DISEASES
• Guide to 38 common garden pests, plant diseases and disorders, such as aphids, slugs, late blight, powdery mildew and blossom end rot
• Symptoms, prevention and natural (organic) remedies, with search
• See which problems can affect the plants in a bed
• Plant health log for every bed: what you spotted, how bad it was, and a photo

SOWING CALENDAR AND FROST DATES
• A planting calendar for this week and this month: what to start indoors, sow outdoors and transplant
• Based on typical dates for temperate Central Europe, adjusted to your own last spring and first fall frost dates
• Estimate your frost dates from the last 10 years of weather history for your town. These are only estimates, so compare them with local experience.

GARDEN ALERTS (OPTIONAL)
• One quick check every morning, never at night
• Frost warnings when tender plants are outside and the forecast drops to 2 °C or lower within 48 hours
• Disease-risk alerts when the weather favors diseases such as late blight or mildew and affected plants are in the ground
• Fertilizer reminders for your beds
• No GPS or location permission: you search for your town by name. Forecasts: MET Norway. Weather history: NASA POWER.

BACKUP
• Optional Google sign-in to back up your plans, plant list, logs and photos to a private app folder in your Google Drive, and restore them on a new phone
