João, the developer behind Leaftide

Hey! I'm João, the developer behind Leaftide.

I built this for myself after years of juggling spreadsheets and notes that never quite fit how I think about my garden. Eventually I just made something that worked the way I wanted.

It's a one-person project with over 1,500 gardens planned so far, and I use it every day for my own. I design it, build it, and answer every support message personally.

Vegetable garden planning questions

Leaftide uses your garden's location to find your local frost dates, temperature normals and growing degree days, then calculates when to sow indoors, sow outdoors, transplant and expect a harvest for each crop and variety. The dates are specific to where you garden, not a regional chart.

Yes. The plot designer lets you draw beds and pots, drag crops in, and check spacing and companion planting as you go. Seasonal views show what is in each bed at different points in the year.

Yes. Duplicate a planting to add a later sowing of the same crop, and each succession gets its own dates, so lettuce, radishes or beans keep coming instead of arriving all at once.

Leaftide predicts harvest windows using growing degree days from your location's temperature data, so a crop in a cool climate gets later dates than the same crop somewhere warmer. Log your actual harvests to compare one season with the next.

Yes, and that is the main difference from vegetable-only planners. Fruit trees, berry bushes, shrubs and perennials get their own records with care reminders and pruning history, in the same app as your beds.

Yes. The Free plan includes 30 plants with no time limit and no card needed, which covers most vegetable gardens. Pro removes the plant limit and adds unlimited custom varieties.
