Hey Rooted Crew 👋
One of the things that used to stress me out every spring was trying to figure out when to start seeds.
Should tomatoes start now?
Am I late on peppers?
Did I miss the window for cabbage?
So I finally built something that solves that problem.
I made a Planting Timeline Tool that calculates when to start seeds based on your last frost date.
You just enter your information and it shows you:
🌱 When to start seeds indoors
🌱 When to transplant outside
🌱 When to direct sow crops
🌱 A simple visual planting schedule
The goal was to make something simple enough for beginners but still useful for serious gardeners.
You can try it here:
Why I Made This
Honestly… I built it because I kept seeing people overwhelmed by seed starting.
The truth is:
Most gardening frustration comes from timing mistakes, not bad gardening.
If the timing is right…a lot of problems disappear.
I’d Love Your Feedback
If you try the tool, tell me:
• Did it make sense?
• What crops should be added?
• Anything confusing?
I’m planning to add more tools like this for the community.
Things like:
🧮 Soil mix calculators
🌾 Living soil calculators
🌱 Bed spacing planners
🌿 KNF schedules
Basically a full homestead toolkit.
So your feedback actually helps shape what gets built next.
