For people who actually grow things

Stop guessing.
Start harvesting.

Trug remembers every plant you have put in the ground — what stage it is in, when you last watered it, and what needs doing today. It reads the forecast, so you never water the beds an hour before the rain.

The tour

Three screens. That is the whole app.

01Today

The morning brief

Every morning Trug builds the day's list for every plant in every garden you belong to, ranked by what actually matters. Then it checks the sky.

  • Tasks generated per plant from its stage, species and your local weather
  • “Heavy rain likely today — 95% chance. Skip watering.” Real guidance, not a reminder
  • One tap to complete; counts update instantly, even with no signal
Today screen: Saturday greeting, an all-clear task tile, a logged-today tile, and a weather card advising to skip watering because heavy rain is 95% likely.

02Garden

A command centre, not a gallery

Ten plants or a hundred, the garden list keeps its shape. Sort it the way you are thinking about it, and act without ever leaving the row.

  • Sort by recent, location, oldest, A–Z or attention needed
  • Tap a row to expand quick actions — water, feed, note, photo
  • Live counts for plants, plants needing care, days to harvest
Garden screen on desktop: stat panel, sort chips, and a list of plants each with a photo, growth stage and overdue badges.

03Plant file

Every plant has a file

Rubus fruticosus, day 27 of 139 in “canes extending”. Trug knows where a plant is in its life and what that means for this week — and keeps the receipts.

  • Stage timeline across the whole season, with days in each stage
  • Care guide written for that species, in that stage
  • Full history of every watering, feed and note — plus a photo trail

Everything else

Built for a real growing year

Shared gardens

Invite the people you grow with. Everyone sees the same plants, the same tasks and the same history — and your own Today list gathers every garden you belong to.

Five-second logging

Water, feed, note or photo. Logs queue offline at the allotment and sync themselves the moment you have signal again.

Seed planner

From November to March, Trug works back from your median last-frost date and tells you what to sow when — with a shopping list.

Community

Ask the board when something looks wrong. Post to everyone or just your garden, attach a plant snapshot so people can actually help.

Barter your surplus

Nine courgettes again? List the glut and swap with growers nearby. Location stays approximate until you agree a trade.

Houseplants welcome

The catalog runs from allotment crops to monsteras, with pet-toxicity flags and a care plan tuned for indoors rather than the weather outside.

Plant Care Lab

Stuck? Ask for an AI read on a specific plant, with its stage, history and your conditions already in the question.

Installs like an app

Add Trug to your home screen and it opens full-screen, works without a connection, and can nudge you when the morning brief is ready.

Your data, plainly

Your gardens are yours. Photos and logs are private to the people you invite, and nothing is shared with the community unless you post it.

Season starts now

Grow with confidence

Add your first plant in under a minute. Trug takes it from there — every stage, every task, every season after this one.
