GrowVeg Gardening Tool

Vegetable Gardening Made Easy

Garden planning specialists GrowVeg.com have just launched a series of online guides to growing fruit, vegetables and herbs in your own garden.

More and more people are experiencing the thrill of growing their own fresh produce yet the specialist knowledge required to succeed at this can be daunting. Not only do different vegetables need sowing and planting at specific times but they also need spacing correctly, planting in the correct position and protecting from pests. The techniques vary from plant to plant and just knowing when to feed or harvest them can often save your whole crop from spoiling.

To make the process simple, GrowVeg.com have created a series of free online ‘GrowGuides’ listing all the important information for more than 90 fruit, vegetables and herbs from their extensive database. Each plant contains a full listing of all the vital factors that enable it to be grown successfully together with information on troubleshooting and harvesting.

As well as the plant information, gardeners can add their own growing tips and advice. The thousands of people who use GrowVeg.com will be using this to build up a repository of all the shared gardening knowledge about each crop along with helpful ways to grow them.

To complement this there are a series of GrowGuide articles written by gardening experts. These cover topics such as Controlling Pests, Starting a New Plot and Gardening with Children.

GARDEN PLANNING TOOL – FREE TRIAL
The new GrowGuides can also work in conjunction with GrowVeg.com’s unique Garden Planning Tool which is used by gardeners to organise their vegetable plots. This online software makes it simple to create plans, print customised planting calendars and rotate crops from year to year. Gardeners can opt to receive email reminders of when to sow and plant each of their vegetables and these link directly to the GrowGuide plant pages. Getting organised in the garden has never been so easy!
