Skippy's Garden Calendar for Android
If you plant seeds, this app will help you. It can be hard to get planting time from a seed packet. You have to count backwards using the days to maturity number and your frost dates to figure out the calendar date. With several seed packets, this gets confusing. Skippy's App solves this.
Skippy's App is designed for gardeners all over the world. It is effective anywhere with four seasons, a cool winter, and an average first and last frost date. Through research and our own experience, we've collected data for the optimum planting times for over 50 vegetables. The app does the work of creating a a year round planting calendar, including spring, fall, and winter planting. It lists sowing, transplanting, and succession planting dates.
The app is easy-to-use and practical. It’s add-free. No in-app purchases. No silly distracting graphics. And it’s actively supported by gardeners with regular updates. If you have a question or suggestion, you can visit skippysgarden.com and email us.
How does it work? Select the season and the crops you want to grow. Add your garden’s frost date. The app will create a calendar for your chosen crops. You can view your planting tasks by the week or scroll through the entire season. Once set up, the app opens to display the current week with your current planting tasks. If planting season hasn't started yet, it will show your first task coming up.
Give it a try. We're sure that Skippy's App will simplify your seed sowing.

I installed the app and while I was able to go through the initial set up after that not a single button worked on the home page. I couldn't do a thing. I expected a working application especially for an app you have to pay for

Easy and intuitive to use. All you do is input first and last frost dates, and when daylight becomes limiting, and it generates a planting calendar. Open it up, and it shows you exactly what you should be doing that week. It's a little simple, but well worth a couple bucks.
