How it Works

PlantSheets is a spreadsheet-style inventory system built for plant collectors and home growers. Track every variety you own — its traits, source, productivity, and progress — all in one organized place. Here's how to get started in four simple steps.

Step 1

Create Your Free Trial Account

Sign up with your email address. We'll send you a verification link to activate your account — the whole process takes under a minute.

  • 30-day free trial — no credit card required
  • After trial: $49 for a whole year — only about $4/month
  • Instant access after email verification
Step 2

Create a Plant Sheet

Add a new plant type — Figs, Apples, Herbs, or anything you grow. Pick from a built-in template with pre-filled columns, or choose your own from scratch.

  • Many built-in plant templates to get started fast
  • Columns for flavor, ripeness, source, hardiness and more
  • Fully customizable to fit any plant type
Step 3

Add Your Plants

Click any cell to start filling in your varieties. Each row is one plant — give it a name and fill in as many or as few details as you like.

  • Excel-style editing — click a cell, type, tab to next
  • Add new rows whenever you expand your collection
  • Leave cells empty and fill them in as you learn more
Step 4

Track, Organize & Grow

Drag rows to reorder your inventory, resize columns to fit your data, and watch your plant records grow richer season after season.

  • Drag-and-drop row ordering
  • Resizable columns
  • Add diary entries, harvest logs and observations per plant

Beyond What a Spreadsheet Can Do

PlantSheets goes further than Excel or Google Sheets ever could for plant collectors.

Per-Plant Diary

Add dated diary entries to any plant — observations, milestones, problems. "First fruit September 2026", "noticed scale insects June 2025". A living record that grows alongside your collection.

Excel can't do this cleanly — you'd end up with cells stuffed with text or a separate tab per plant.

Harvest Logs

Record each harvest with date, weight and yield notes. Track how a variety performs year over year and spot patterns across your collection.

Compare this year's fig harvest to last year's — variety by variety.

Seasonal Reminders

Set your own care reminders per plant — "prune in March", "repot after last frost", "check for pests in July". PlantSheets sends you an email so nothing gets missed.

Your garden's calendar, built right into your inventory.

Pest Management & Spray Log

Keep a dedicated log of every treatment — what product you sprayed, on which plant, on what date, and why. Track recurring pest problems, monitor treatment effectiveness, and set up a spray schedule with email notifications so you never miss a treatment window.

Stop guessing when you last treated a plant — your full pest history is one click away, and your next spray reminder is already in your inbox.
