Do I need a credit card to start the trial?
No. Your 14-day trial starts the moment you sign up. We'll ask for payment info before the trial ends — not before.
Can I switch between Garden and Homestead?
Yes. You can upgrade from Garden to Homestead at any time. We'll prorate the difference. Downgrades take effect at your next renewal.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access through the end of your billing period. After that, your account reverts to Free — 1 bed, 30 varieties, basic frost dates.
I already paid for lifetime Pro. What happens to me?
Your lifetime access is honored. Full stop. You're in the Homestead tier permanently — no annual charge, ever. You got in early and helped build this. That matters.
What's the difference between Garden and Homestead?
Garden is the full planting experience — unlimited beds, 500+ varieties, frost-date personalization, succession planning. Homestead adds the food preservation stack: the planner that does the math, Seed Room pantry tracking, unlimited Smart Plan, and the Indoor Living Transition Guide.
Is this cheaper than the other garden planning apps?
Yes. Seedtime charges $168/yr for unlimited. GrowVeg is $35–$85/yr. We're $19–$39/yr with deeper food preservation than either of them.
