Number of containers

Approx. direct sun

hours

Best use: Count usable containers and estimate direct sun before selecting crops.

What to enter before you build the plan

Count usable containers and estimate direct sun before selecting crops.

How to read the result

Use the crop volume notes as minimum planning starts. Hot paved patios can increase watering demand, so larger containers may be easier to manage.

What this planner does not decide for you

It does not know your exact cultivar, soil condition, local frost pattern or maintenance time. Keep the output as a first draft and revise it as you observe the site.
