Find answers to get the most from Permapotes.
Drag and drop a task
On a computer, sign in to your account. To add a task to the calendar, drag its handle from the right-hand column to the day you want in the calendar.
Generating the calendar
To prepare your sowing and planting dates automatically, open the wizard from the calendar. Select your plants, choose your climate zone if that step is shown, and set your preferences, choosing automatic mode. Then check the dates in the preview before confirming that they should be added to the calendar.
How do I generate tasks in my calendar?
First add your favourite plants and choose your climate zone. From the calendar, generate dates: Permapotes will then suggest suitable periods for each plant.
You can still edit, move or delete any suggested task.
Why is my climate zone important?
Sowing and planting periods vary with the climate. Your zone adjusts the advice and dates suggested in the calendar.
It does not replace observing your garden: take frost, local weather and growing conditions into account.
