Gardening Online - Plan Your Garden at PlanGarden.com!
This didn't really fit any of my categories, but it's worth noting. A 45
Day no risk trial, $20/Yr or $36/3 Yrs, you can plan your garden online,
share your plan with others, critique and share ideas. Great idea, but
the 1 yr subscription should be lower, say $14.95. At $36 for three
years, that's a dollar a month - not a bad price, but they'll have to
prove themselves first IMHO, as $36 is a lot of seed, quite a bit of
fertilizer, or a third of our weekly grocery bill.
The program is
layed out very nicely, giving you grids for square foot gardening, start
and transplant dates for veggies, harvest information and more. The
interface is quite good, though I'd like to see the ability to move
blocks of information around (say, grabbing the whole plot and moving it
over, as I'm going to be rotating crops and moving each veggie's going
to be a bit of a pain).
Hoping
the best for this program, and hoping to find enough in my budget to
utilize it this year.
