How to print a list of plants i input?
John Ehrling Hi Laurene, you can only print your design. We may look into adding a listed print in the future.
Jessica Lynne Loveless I can't believe we can't print a list of the plants.
John Ehrling Hi Jessica, we have added it to our list!
Hey, i just got composting worms, what is the easiest way to shred cardboard for bedding
John Ehrling Ive heard some people like to soak the cardboard in water until it is soft, then put it in a blender to shred. I never tried this personally. Make sure you wait until the cardboard is dry before putting it outside.
You should try the GardenAI, which is part of this app. It is great for questions like this!
Trying to decide what to put where in these beds. Zone 6b/7. Arched trellis is going to be white half runner beans and cucumbers. The horizontal trellis is going to be tomatoes. The beds are 10x25 and there’s 2 of them. I have planned to do some brassicas, okra, squash, etc. I have a salad type bed that’s semi raised behind the further bed. It’s the companion planting and rotating beds I’m getting stuck on. The furthest bed had everything in it last year before we knew about companion planting. We’re in middle TN so clay soil but seems to be very fertile! Thanks in advance!
John Ehrling Have you tried asking out GardenAI? It is built into the app. It is great at making companion planting recommendations!
Marilyn Kohler Awesome! Thanks!
I’m moving in October to zone 8a. I will be planning a 1/2-1 acre garden. Not quite sure where to start. I do t think I want to do beds just yet. I’m assuming I’ll have to do a lot of soil amending. How do I map out planting?
John Ehrling Hi Shelley, check out Hortisketch on Gardensavvy.com. It is perfect for planning and mapping out your property.
I have a 4'x 4' square foot garden. I have 18 beds I've created for the purpose of education for our community. in these 4'x4' beds I create pvc trelis for plants like squash(butternut or acorn) cucumbers and sweet pea. in front I might grow hot peppers and in front raddishs. I uploaded this program to illistrate to our students how the garden is assembled. To guide them into what crops go in what beds,how to prepare and when we plan on planting. I need a kind of visual map of the garden. Is this program cappable of doing this. please over look my miss spelling. I also have an active communiy composting system. I have a cold fram and plan on a vertical hern and strawberry garden on a wall. can this program do these things?

Aspargus is coming along pretty good. I thought for sure I ruined the seeds because I soaked them for about 72 hours instead of overnight.
John Ehrling Looks great! Asparagus takes forever to grow.
Starting with a BLANK SLATE—almost nothing growing but scattered weeds and grass and some purposefully sown Dutch White Clover. We have very heavy clay, here in central NC.
Wondering if anyone else has experimented with planting clover…
A. E. That is such an adorable name for a wonderful cause. Good luck
