Edible Garden Planner 1.1.0.0

A very useful helper for those involved in the cultivation of various crops
Taking care of the plants in the garden one season after another can be made a lot easier by resorting to dedicated applications that are designed for managing crops.

Windows Phone users can try one such specialized utility that goes by the name of Edible Garden Planner and provides the necessary means of tracking the evolution of your crops and of the current and past seasons.

Unsophisticated and less appealing front-end

This app has a very simple layout, that is clearly designed for functionality only, as it leaves aside any trace of visual appeal to offer quick access to all the functions and configurations. There are barely a few hints of color inside this utility and one of the few positive aspects related to its appearance is the neat structuring of the content.

The intuitive placement of the commands and functions makes it a breeze to operate it, especially when considering the seamless navigation from end-to-end. A noticeable drawback is represented by the presence of the advertisement banners that keep on flashing inside all the areas of the app.

Manage crops and rotation plans for your garden plots

With the help of Edible Garden Planner you will be able to create journals for every season and add the various crops in the designated area to monitor their evolution.

The rotation plans depend on the crops and the plots, so you have the possibility to customize them according to your needs, each from the corresponding section of the application.

Depending on the intended uses for the garden parcels, you can assign plots for animal grazing, leave foul, cover crops or mulch cover the plots. Insofar as the rotation plans are concerned, you can opt for a 3-year plan and assign a different crop to each stage

Bottom Line
Design / UI5
 

The interface is completely unattractive and the only things that earn some points are the organization of the content and the smooth navigation throughout the application.

Function7
 

This utility offers a basic set of tools that can be of great help for gardeners and farmers, but learning how to use it and personalizing it may take a bit of time.

Security7
 

Without any connection to the actual functions of this app, it needs to look into the owner and phone identities, as well as inside the phone dialer.

Battery9
 

The simpleness of this app has an upside, more precisely the battery usage remains very low during its runtime as it only needs a small amount of power to run well.

Price8
 

A utility tailored for more advanced users and experienced gardeners, this application offers some good features, but has some inherent shortcomings that decrease its overall value a bit.

Compatibility9
 

Most Windows Phone users can have this utility up and running onto their mobile phones since it only needs version 7.5 or higher of the OS to be installed.
