March, 2018 Update – Choose Your Own Freeze Dates for Customized Indoor Seed Starting and Outdoor Planting Dates in Our From Seed to Spoon Garden Planning Growing Guides Mobile App!

Our last update added customized indoor seed starting and outside planting dates based on your location. To calculate the dates, we used the most conservative estimate for the last freeze date from your closest weather station.

This update adds the ability to choose from 10 different freeze date options so you can tailor the planting dates to your liking!

Many times, planting dates can be accelerated if you’re able to provide your plants with some sort of protection during cold temperatures. Now you’re able to make that decision for yourself in the app!

2018 OKC Home & Garden Show: What I Learned From Talking to People About Growing Food

We had a lot of fun at the OKC Home & Garden show last weekend! We went there to help spread the word about the app, to get kids interested in gardening, and to help inspire people to start growing food. I had A LOT of conversations about growing food and began to notice a common theme among the topics. I have this huge list of features I want to add to our mobile app but I’ve struggled to decide what to work on first. Last weekend clarified the biggest challenges facing new gardeners and helped me focus my attention on the most important problems. Here’s what I learned from talking to people for 30 hours straight this weekend about growing food and the challenges they face.
