Anyone Use Gardener.com Plans?

I was looking at Gardener.com software and their pre-planned 3' wide gardens. Has anyone modified one of these for a 4' bed? I was thinking about just duplicating the middle row but wanted to know if anyone had any success with it before I planted.

Also, I assume the spacing they use is different then what we are used to, no? Any comments?

I love it!
My beds are 3x20, so I take 2 3x10's and stitch the picts together.

Is this site still running? I get what looks like a placeholder. Any alternatives?

On the opening page of the Kitchen Garden Planner it has a link to 'Design Your Own'. Click on that and you will get a blank grid that you can change to the size you want. Then just click on the veggie pics and design your own garden! From what I saw, the spacing is pretty much the same as in the ANSFG book.

I'm not sure what gardner.com did, but

http://www.gardeners.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-Gardeners-Site/default/Page-KitchenGardenDesigner#emailbed

has some planning software. Hope this helps

OK. so I can't remember the name of the site. Sorry, it was gardeners.com.

Thanks everyone. It was that pesky S on the end. (lol) Gardener.com is something completely different!

And thanks for sharing it Shoda! Very cool indeed!

Thanks for the link. I was admiring plans from other posts wishing I had the software to do this. It's so much fun to put my plans on a grid with pictures and the planting information at the bottom is pretty cool too. Awesome!

I used the garden planner on the Jung Seed website. It's only free for 30 days Sad

, but they do not automatically sign you up at the end of your trial period...which is nice.

The Jung garden planner is really nice. It has been fun playing with it. I could easily over-plan with it. For those who haven't checked it out, you should. It doesn't require any payment information for the first month so play away.

I have been using growveg.com (jung planner) because it will specifically tell you how many plants you can put per sf
