Found plants:
It's unfortunate; a gastronomic supply is not possible at this point.
I have a great idea: just select your favorite plants - or should I have food delivered?
Are you sure?
This plant is still needed!
Recovery is impossible!
It is part of these growing plans. As long as that is the case, you cannot delete it — otherwise it would be missing from your plans and your To-dos.
If you want to remove it, edit the plan first.
This plant is already in use!
This plant is used here:
This is carried over into your growing plans and To-dos:
This applies to new growing plans only. Your existing plans stay as they are:
The planting and harvest notes on your To-dos now use the new values.
New planting distances change the number of plants in the bed.
Do you want to leave your plans untouched? Then create a copy of the plant and edit the copy. Your plans keep the original.
A copy is not possible right now: in test mode you can only create a few plants.
If you cancel, nothing is saved — not even your change.
Sellerina
For every plant there is a book on the shelf — and what is inside is your call.
First steps
My plants is your bookshelf: For everything you picked to eat in the catalog, there is a book of its own here. The orange book button on the card opens it: the complete profile from sowing to harvest, with pictures, neighbors and tips.
And the best part: the books are yours. Every template comes preset for the Central European climate — you can simply use it as is. Or you make it your plant: name its variety, give it your photo, and adjust the values — one by one with the pencil, or comfortably with the assistant in question-and-answer style.
Know your plants and tend them well — that is how solid groundwork is laid.

Adapt template to:
my seeds
my climate
Sellerina
Before we adapt your plants to your climate, one question: Should I plan with the last 5 years only — or carefully with all 10 years?
Important: If you choose the last 5 years, I plan more boldly. Your plans may then suggest planting out earlier than a cold outlier spring allows. With all 10 years I plan more carefully — the cold years count too.
And whatever you decide: before your plan says "time to plant out", we take another close look at the real weather. You will get that info in your to-dos and in the weather overview.
You can change this later under "My weather". The change only applies to new recommendations — your adjusted plants and growing plans stay as they are.
For the climate adjustment I need your garden's weather data. First activate the weather under "My account" —> "My weather" — then I'll help you further here.
What is your variety called?
Your plant still carries the template name. Give it the name of your real variety — you can find it on the seed packet. That way you will recognise your plant at a glance everywhere in the app.
Do you plan with protection?
Protection shifts your window: in earlier, out later. The values are shown on each answer.
Note: the soil temperature is an estimated value. There is no measured data for it — the weather service estimates it too.
How do you get the plant into the bed?
This decides when it starts and how long you harvest.
How would you like to harvest?
This decides how long the plant occupies your bed.
How long would you like to harvest?
The longer, the more harvest. I won’t plan beyond what your plant lasts or your weather allows.
The more sowings you choose, the longer your planting window stays open — and the longer you harvest in a row.
When should your plant go into the bed?
Each answer shows the full time span: when your plant goes into the bed — and until when you harvest.
This assistant helps you adapt the template to your variety and to your climate. Do you have the seed packet at hand? Then start by entering what it says — those details are sometimes better than any template.
No weather data loaded yet.
When do you sow, when do you harvest?
Enter what your seed packet says. From the months I work out how long your plant occupies the bed.

How deep does the seed go, how much space does the plant need?
Sowing depth, plant spacing and row spacing are on almost every seed packet. From the spacings I work out how many plants fit into your bed.
Sowing depth
Plant spacing (in cm)
Row spacing (in cm)
What does the packet say about germination?
I need the germination temperature to determine your sowing date. Germination time and germination rate help you with re-sowing.
Germination temperature (in °C)
Germination time (in days)
Germination rate (in %)

Good news: your plant already fits your climate — I have nothing to improve.

This plant comes with properties preset for the climate of Central Europe. You can simply use them as they are. You can adjust single properties directly — tap the pen next to a value. Or use the assistant (magic wand at the top): there you adapt the plant to your climate in a question-and-answer style.
Reset all properties
Really reset all properties? Your changes to this plant and your own images will be lost.
This plant is used in growing plans. Afterwards they will carry the variety name, the distances and the notes from the template. Times and growing break stay in the plans as they are.

When to sow, plant, harvest?
Is your plant a perennial? And is it hardy for your climate? Then this plant is permaculture. Select yes here.
The planting break - the period in years during which no replanting takes place on the same sub-area. Changing the planting break is rarely useful. If you rework or replace your soil every year, you can reduce the number of years. If there is high pest pressure and diseases, you can increase it instead.
Growing time – also called life cycle. The number of months. It starts with planting out. And ends with the complete harvest.
In which month would you like to plant out this plant (out into the soil)? In May? Then choose the period from 5 to 5 - sometimes it can make sense to choose a larger period, e.g. for lettuce, so you can also plan for a second sowing.
If you'd rather pre-grow this plant, select “Pre-growing” here. Do you prefer direct sowing for this plant, or do you buy young plants?
The period from sowing to planting readiness. How many months in advance should I remind you to pre-grow your young plants? (For example, for a cucumber it's enough to pre-grow it 1 - 2 months before planting out.)
