Features & Capabilities

New in 1.0.3: report a bug or suggest an idea right from Settings, read by a real person. Your ZIP still becomes a full planting calendar, and still no account, ever.

Dibble is a planting calendar built around your actual garden. No account needed, and your data stays on your devices.

Enter your ZIP or postal code. Dibble reads your hardiness zone and local frost dates and works out exactly when to start seeds indoors, direct sow, transplant and harvest each crop. Then it reminds you at the right time, all season.

PERSONALIZED PLANTING CALENDAR • Your zone, your frost dates and a per-crop calendar in seconds • 78 crops: vegetables, herbs, flowers, berries and fruit trees, from tomatoes and garlic to dahlias and strawberries • Start-indoors, sow, transplant and harvest windows for your location • Works across the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand

SEASONAL REMINDERS • "Start tomatoes indoors now," "time to transplant," "first frost approaching" • Mark a task done straight from the notification • Scheduled on your device, with no account

AT A GLANCE • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with today's tasks, tickable without opening the app • On frost nights, a Live Activity keeps the warning on your Lock Screen until morning • Today's tasks on your Apple Watch • Find any crop or planting from iPhone search

GARDEN JOURNAL • Note what you planted and how it is doing, with photos • Build a history that makes next year easier • Garden Wrapped, a recap of everything you grew this season

ASK DIBBLE Quick answers to planting questions, worked out on your device from your own garden and zone.

GROW DEEPER (Premium) • Bed layout planner, square-foot style, with companion-planting warnings • Succession planting and crop rotation • Varieties and labels • Harvest and yield tracking, plus a seed inventory with a packet scanner • Perennials and fruit trees followed across years • Houseplant care, with watering, feeding and repotting reminders • Multiple gardens • Live frost and rain alerts for your location • Diagnose plant diseases and pests from a photo, with organic fixes, entirely on your device • Identify plants from a photo, entirely on your device

IN THE OFF SEASON Dibble switches to planning mode with a countdown to your last frost, so winter is for ordering seeds and mapping next year's beds.

YOUR DATA IS YOURS Export your whole garden as JSON or CSV whenever you like, and restore a backup onto any device.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your garden data never leaves your devices. Dibble is local-first: everything lives on your device and syncs only through your own iCloud. No account, no ad-tracking, no servers holding your data. Plant and disease identification run entirely on-device, so your photos are never uploaded.

Free includes the full personalized calendar, reminders, the complete crop library, journal, widgets and the Apple Watch app. Premium unlocks layout, succession, varieties, harvest tracking, perennials, houseplants, multiple gardens and frost alerts, as a monthly or yearly plan (with a 7-day free trial) or a one-time Lifetime unlock.

Planting dates are estimates based on your zone and typical local frost dates. Results vary by microclimate and weather, so always verify with your local cooperative extension before planting.

User Reviews

I’ve tried several gardening apps, but Dibble is the first one that I’ve found quite useful for planning my garden. I really like that it takes your location and growing zone into account and turns that information into an actual planting calendar, rather than giving you vague advice about when you might want to plant something. Usually, I end up uninstalling gardening apps; but this one has everything I’ve been looking for!

I honestly didn’t realize how much I was overthinking planting times until I started using Dibble. You just put in your location, and it tells you when to start seeds, transplant, and harvest for each crop. It’s made planning my garden so much easier. I also love having my planting schedule, garden layout, and notes all in one place instead of bouncing between different apps. The app is clean, easy to use, and the free version has way more than I expected. Definitely worth downloading if you’re planning a garden this season.
