This allows you to see what the beginning and ending frost dates are for your geographical area. This useful feature can actually allow you to get a head start on the planting season. This can be as simple as starting your tomatoes indoors, which Garden Planner can help you do. Along with frost dates, another practical aspect of this vegetable garden software is its ability to tell you the perfect time to harvest your crops.

It also tells you how to harvest each bit of produce since each plant is different.

Vegetable garden planner

Vegetable Garden Planner has a simple style, which makes it easy to use, even if it feels a bit outdated. Setting up your garden from the start is very easy because this program allows you to use different shapes to create your garden bed. The graph-based setup can help you space out each garden bed and keep spacing consistency with other beds, as well. When you start creating your layout, all you have to do is select what shape you want to use and drag the mouse.

Plangarden

This vegetable garden software offers you a host of features that you would be hard pressed to find with any other application. The most unique thing we found Plangarden is that it will allow you to create your own names for anything you have planted in your garden. This can be helpful if you have always used the term spring onions to mean scallions, for instance. Because you have the option to label your plants in any way you would like to, you will never be confused about which plants you are working with. However, the application also allows you to use its predefined labels. Another unique feature of this vegetable garden planner is that it will allow you to upload your own images to use in your virtual garden. In the application, the icon used for Brussels sprouts is not as clear as we’d like to have seen; however, by taking your own photograph and uploading the image, you will have a crystal-clear picture of your Brussels sprouts. This will also add another element of creativity to your garden that you can use to attract friends to check out your garden plans.
