Dashboards are already an important part of smart homes, smart driving...but what about smart gardening? Folia provides a dashboard to help users know what plants are being sown and harvested, as well as weather forecasts, seed organizing, and photo organizing so that your garden can grow at its best.
Gardening and Urban Homesteading are on the upswing and getting organized is a big part of running an efficient garden, and getting the most out of it.
Folia's cool webtool helps get all your seeds in a row - from listing chores to tracking frosts, researching sowing and harvesting timing to tracking observations about your garden.
The basic subscription is free, or you can get a full subscription through a pay-what-you-can system starting at $16.
