Most gardens don't fail in the soil. They fail on paper.

I'm Vladimir. I build PlotMyGarden alone, from a desk between my own raised beds in Germany.

I built PlotMyGarden after my own first season ended in guesswork. It's the tool I wish I'd had.

Images from the plant guides: tomato, potato

One wet July in my own garden, and both were gone within a week.

I learned the tomato–potato rule the hard way: they share late blight.

Every garden starts twice: once on the canvas, once in the soil.

Too many Februaries taught me where most gardens fail: on paper, as spacing mistakes nobody noticed. So that is where PlotMyGarden starts: you draw your beds to scale, place your plants, and get planting dates for your own frost dates.

  • Basil
  • Lettuce
  • Parsnip
  • Rhubarb
  • Lavender
Tomato + PotatoThey share late blight; one wet month can take both. The editor warns you before the weather does.

That red line in the editor exists so your first season goes better than mine did.

This app grows the same way my garden does: one gardener's feedback at a time.

Every feature in it exists because a gardener like you asked for it. If something is wrong or missing, tell me. I read every reply.
