Garden log & planner: seed inventory, planting calendar, seed starting tracker
Read full description
Sowlog is a garden log and garden planner for people who start plants from seed. Keep a seed inventory, plan sowing dates from your last frost, and log every bed from sowing to harvest — all on your phone.
Free for 7 days with everything open. After that, one payment keeps you adding new entries. No subscription, no ads, no account. Viewing your log, the season summary, exports and backups never need the unlock.
YOUR SEED INVENTORY
✓ Add each seed packet: name, variety, crop, how many seeds and the year it was packed for.
✓ See at a glance which packets are fresh, getting old or past their prime, so you sow the old ones first.
✓ Tag each packet with one of 18 common crops (tomato, pepper, lettuce, beans, squash and more), or leave the crop blank.
A PLANTING CALENDAR FROM YOUR LAST FROST
✓ Choose your frost zone (2a to 10b) or type your own last-frost date.
✓ Sowlog estimates when to start seeds indoors, when to transplant and when to sow directly outside, crop by crop.
✓ "Next 14 days" shows what is coming up. When this season's dates have passed, it plans the next one.
A GARDEN LOG FOR EVERY BED
✓ Create your beds and add plantings to them, straight from your seed packets.
✓ Log what happened: sowed, germinated, transplanted, harvested.
✓ Germination rate is worked out for you from what you sowed and what came up.
✓ Harvests in pounds or grams — switch any time.
SEASON SUMMARY
✓ Every bed and planting in one place: sowed, germinated, germination %, first sowing, last harvest and total harvest.
✓ Export the summary as a PDF to print or share, or as a CSV for a spreadsheet.
