It is easy to get excited about having a garden but quite the challenge to get it blooming! Plants are like babies and need a lot of care and dedication on our part.
Plants need to be watered regularly, pruned in the right season, and occasionally fertilized. Some plants like shade while others thrive in sunlight and hence it is essential to place them in the right spot.
But not to worry, there are many apps now available to home gardeners, keeping us one step ahead, and helping us meet the needs of our green companions. One such highly-rated app is Planta and it is free to use to help you take care of your home garden.
With a 4.8 rating on Apple App Store, Planta is one of the most trending plant apps available for iOS. This app is a great companion to any plant lover and can be super useful at keeping your green friends happy. Let’s take a look at some of the features of this app.
By adding plants to the Planta app, you can get reminders when it is time to water your plants. As we all know, water is so essential to plants and if we do not water them regularly, they can wither in no time. You can also set reminders for fertilizing, misting, and repotting your plants.
The app contains step by step guides detailing how to grow plants and take care of them. If one is not a seasoned gardener, one can truly benefit from all the gardening tips enclosed in this app.
When you use the Planta app regularly, it understands how skilled and committed you are and accordingly makes various recommendations. It suggests the plants you can grow by judging your skillset and choice of plants.
You might have some plants in your home garden which you are unable to identify. To identify these plants you have to do is take a photo and upload it to the app and the app will tell you the name of the plant and give you tips on how to take care of it.
Would a certain house plant grow well on the porch, by the window-side or in the living room corner? Every plant has specific needs for sunlight and the Planta app will make suggestions on where to place the plant based on the light conditions of the rooms in your house.
You can also maintain a plant journal on the Planta app and detail the progress of your plants. You can jot down how well they are growing, when they flower, which place in the garden they like, and so on.
By keeping this journal you can get an idea about the progress your plants are making as well as how much progress you are making as a home gardener.
You can download the Planta app for free on iOS from Apple App Store. It is compatible with iOS 11.0 or later and can be used on your iPhone, iPad and, iPod touch. The app is free to use with most of its features accessible upon download.
However, certain features of the app like plant identification and recommendations are available on a subscription basis. The Planta Premium subscription costs $7.99 for 1 month, $17.99 for 3 months, and $35.99 for 1 year.
It is a delight to see one’s garden growing well and healthy. If we truly nurture our plants, they are sure to reward us by turning our home into a green paradise. Besides, there’s always apps like Planta to help us give them the best of care!
