Garden Care Planner
Estimate daily water needs from your local climate, size a fertilizer application, and plan crop rotation & pruning windows.

ET₀ is a Hargreaves-Samani estimate from temperature and day length — a solid planning figure, but local humidity, wind and cloud cover shift the real number. Feed the weekly volume above into the Irrigation Budget tab of the Garden Project Calculator to plan zone runtimes.
Bed area
Target application rate
Approximate general guidelines (kg/ha of N–P₂O₅–K₂O). A soil test will always give a more precise target.
Your fertilizer product
Enter the three numbers on the bag (e.g. 10-10-10).

The product amount is set by whichever nutrient is hardest to satisfy — so the other two are often oversupplied. Split large doses across the season instead of applying it all at once.
Crop rotation wheel
Rotating through these four families in order keeps any one pest, disease or nutrient drain from building up in the same soil year after year.
Pruning calendar
Rotation schedule
All figures are planning estimates for home garden use. Check local extension guidance or a soil test before large-scale fertilizer application.
