Every feature

Everything Canopy does, season by season.

36 features, from the first answer about where you garden to the last harvest written down. Marked Pro where it is part of Pro — every new account has Pro's planning free for its first 60 days. Everything else is free. Each one links to its page in the user guide.

Set up

One answer about where you garden, and the whole app knows your season.

Your garden's facts from one answer

Free

Your location gives Canopy your hardiness zone, your frost dates and your weather — every date in the app starts there.

In the guide →

Your units, your tasks

Free

Feet or metres, Fahrenheit or Celsius, and log tasks of your own beside the built-in ones.

In the guide →

Your weather source

Free

The forecast for your location, behind every date and warning in the app.

Pro adds your own backyard weather station and its soil probe, in place of the forecast.

In the guide →

Cloud backup

Free

Your garden syncs to your account, so a new phone picks up where you left off. The first 100 log photos are backed up too.

Pro adds every log photo backed up.

In the guide →

Design your garden

Draw it once, to scale, and let Canopy do the spacing.

The garden map

Free

Every bed and area drawn to scale, over a satellite view of your own yard, with each planting placed where it stands.

In the guide →

Beds of any shape

Free

Move, resize and turn a bed, or trace its real outline corner by corner, with undo and redo.

In the guide →

AI layouts

Free

Ask for a layout and preview it before anything moves: kinds of one crop kept together, sprawlers given room, rows on your drip tape, plants that should be apart kept apart.

In the guide →

Lock what's settled

Free

Lock a planting, or a whole bed, so no layout ever moves it.

In the guide →

Read a plan picture

Pro

Photograph a drawn garden plan and Canopy reads it row by row into a bed you can check and fix. An AI reading, so Pro from the first day.

In the guide →

Crop rotation

Pro

Every bed remembers the plant families grown in it, shows where they stood, and warns before the same family goes back in.

In the guide →

Next season's design

Pro

Pick next year and plan it on the map, with last year's rows drawn as ghosts underneath.

In the guide →

Soil tests

Free

Record a lab report or a home kit for each bed — pH, organic matter, N, P, K — or photograph the report and let Canopy read it.

In the guide →

Plan the season

From your seeds and your frost dates to a calendar you can follow.

The planting planner

Free

For each crop and variety: when to start seeds indoors, harden off, plant out and expect a harvest — dated from your own frost dates.

In the guide →

The calendar

Free

Every sowing, transplant, hardening start and harvest on its day, with the week's watering and feeding beside them.

In the guide →

Perennial care

Free

Yearly jobs for berries, trees and perennials, like mulching for winter, dated for your climate.

In the guide →

The plant catalogue

Free

Every crop and variety Canopy knows, with spacing, timing, yield and growing notes — and your own figures where you set them.

In the guide →

Seeds & supplies

Free

Seed packets, fertilizer bags and the rest, with quantities and where they are kept — and sowings recorded straight from a packet.

In the guide →

Grow and tend

Each day, what needs you — and a record of everything you did.

Home and the Pulse

Free

Today's weather, what needs you today, the season so far and what was logged lately — on one screen.

In the guide →

Hardening off

Free

A board for seedlings getting used to outside: each day, whether they go out, for how long, and why.

Pro adds hour by hour and the days ahead.

In the guide →

Weather and frost alerts

Free

Your forecast with the readings that drive watering and hardening — including an invisible radiational frost on a clear, calm night.

In the guide →

Record a task

Free

Watering, feeding, a harvest with its weight, a pest check, a photo — for one plant or many at once.

In the guide →

A planting's card

Free

Everything about one planting: where it is, its dates and count, its own timing from your seed packet, and its history.

In the guide →

Photo check

Free

Photograph a plant that looks wrong: Canopy names it, checks for pests, disease and stress, says what to do, and saves it to the plant's log.

Pro adds 10 checks a day instead of 3 a month.

In the guide →

Ask Canopy

Free

Ask about your own garden — pick a planting and the answer knows its stage, its bed and its history.

Pro adds 60 questions a day instead of 5.

In the guide →

Tags & labels

Pro

Write an NFC tag or print a QR label for a plant or a seed packet; tap or scan it in the garden and its page opens.

Water and feed

You run your own system. Canopy works out how much, and when.

Your watering program

Free

Each zone's days, start time and minutes, a reminder before a run, and a check that evening on whether it ran.

In the guide →

The weekly re-plan

Pro

Canopy proposes each zone's program from your plantings and the forecast, skips a run the rain has covered, and adds a make-up run when a storm falls short.

In the guide →

Did it run?

Free

Tell Canopy what actually happened to each planned run, and the plan learns from it.

In the guide →

Your feed schedule

Free

What to feed and when, for a fertilizer injector on a zone or plants you feed by hand, on a cadence you can make your own.

In the guide →

Feeding worked out for you

Pro

The grams for your bucket, from your own fertilizer bag, your target and your bed's soil test — and why each feed.

In the guide →

Harvest and learn

See the harvest coming, then read the season back.

When crops are ready

Free

How close each crop's harvest is, with a date for every planting — from your seed packet's days where you give them.

In the guide →

Harvest by heat units

Pro

Plants ripen on heat. Canopy counts the growing-degree-days in your own weather and projects each crop's date as the season runs warm or cool.

In the guide →

Canopy Insights

Free

The season read back from your log, in numbers: plantings started and finished, harvest weighed, water given, feeds logged.

Pro adds this season against last, harvest by crop and by bed, sow-to-harvest times, water against the rain, and the season audit.

In the guide →

Your records

Your garden's memory — and yours to keep.

The Log

Free

Everything you have recorded, newest first, with photos — searchable by plant, task, variety, bed and note.

In the guide →

Reports

Free

Twelve files to keep or send: the season summary, the harvest log, the seed shopping list, the calendar for your phone's calendar app, the bed map and more.

Pro adds every report.

In the guide →

The user guide, everywhere

Free

Every screen explained behind each ? in the app, as a PDF, and on this site.
