Ketha is a simple farmer's diary for home growers who want to stay on top of every crop โ€” without spreadsheets, guesswork, or wasted harvests. Whether you're growing microgreens on a kitchen counter, running a hydroponic NFT system, or transplanting seedlings into the garden, Ketha keeps every plant on a clear schedule and tells you exactly what needs doing today. KNOW WHAT TO DO TODAY Open Ketha and your dashboard shows every action needed right now โ€” across all your crops at once. No scrolling through notes. No checking spreadsheets. Just a clear, prioritised list: what's overdue, what's due today, what's ready to harvest. PLAN AHEAD WITH CONFIDENCE The Gantt view maps out every crop's full journey on a scrollable timeline. See exactly when each stage transitions โ€” germination, transplanting, harvest โ€” weeks in advance. Switch to the calendar view to get a day-by-day picture of what's coming. BUILT ON SMART TEMPLATES Choose from ready-made growing templates or build your own. Define each stage of your crop's journey โ€” soaking, germination, seedling, vegetative growth, harvest โ€” and Ketha automatically calculates every milestone from the day you sow. Starter templates included: - Microgreens - Hydroponics - Soil โ€” Direct Sow - Soil โ€” Transplanting - Herbs (Basil, Mint) - Leafy Greens (Lettuce, Spinach) - Root Vegetables (Radish, Beetroot) NEVER MISS A STAGE AGAIN Ketha sends a morning digest every day with that day's actions, and an urgent alert the moment any crop becomes overdue. Your crops stay on track even when life gets busy. A DIARY, NOT A COURSE Ketha helps you track what you're growing โ€” it does not teach you how to grow. Bring your own knowledge; Ketha keeps it organised. PREMIUM โ€” AD FREE Ketha is free to use with a short daily video. Upgrade to Premium remove all ads. Download Ketha. Your crops are waiting.
