“Nothing’s in season yet” – My Garden: Inspiration To Grow Review

Sadly, this is another garden app that’s going into my compost bin. After entering my zip code, presumably to allow for location specific information, and then selecting my interests, the app states on all of my garden interests that “Nothing’s in season yet”. In reality, I’m already planting kale, peas, lettuce, and onions - as I have every year at this time for the last 30+ years. Look, I get it. Making a garden app is challenging because of the variability of weather, location, soil conditions, level of education, and 1000 other variables but to suggest that there is no information available for my area at this time of year or tasks that I need to focus on now in order to have a successful spring garden is outright failure on the part of the product owners of this app. Having an app is convenient but only when it offers more value than my current methods. I’ll guess I’ll stick to my tried and true paper journals and Google Sheets for another year.
