Start with the season

Open the app and see what your garden is ready for.

Sow Now uses a straightforward UK growing calendar to show crops you can sow indoors, sow outdoors or plant out this month. There is no sign-up and no complicated setup—just a clear answer to the question, “What can I plant now?”

See what is ready to get growing today, then look ahead to the next month so you can plan the next patch, pot or raised bed.

Every crop, made approachable

Useful growing information without the overwhelm.

Browse or search a practical library of common vegetables, herbs and fruit. Each plant page clearly shows whether it is ready to plant now, coming soon, or out of season.

  • Simple sowing and planting calendar
  • Indoor sowing, outdoor sowing and planting-out guidance
  • Spacing, depth, sun and water essentials
  • Germination, harvest timing and helpful growing tips

Make it your garden

Keep a clear record of what is growing.

When you sow or plant a crop, add it to My Garden and record the date in a few taps. Add the same crop as often as you need—ideal for staggered sowings throughout the season.

From planting day to harvest day

My Garden keeps your active crops together with their planting date, growing progress and estimated harvest window. When a crop is ready, mark it as harvested and keep a simple local history of what you have grown.

A helpful sense of timing

Know when your work may be ready to enjoy.

Sow Now estimates each crop’s harvest window from its planting date and typical time to maturity. Clear statuses, from recently planted to harvest approaching, help you understand where each crop is in its journey.

Gardening always has its surprises, so harvest dates are presented as useful estimates—not promises. You remain in control of the final call.

Helpful, without the noise

Turn on optional local reminders for approaching harvests or the start of a new planting month. Everything you need—from the crop library to your garden records and reminders—works without an internet connection.

Made for real gardens

Whether you have an allotment, a few containers, a raised bed or a whole garden, Sow Now keeps the essentials clear and close at hand. It is designed for beginners and experienced growers alike.
