Get My Free Planting Guide βπΊοΈ How Microclimate Detection Works
When you enable the optional location feature, we analyze your exact coordinates to detect microclimate factors specific to your garden:
- βElevation effects β Adjust frost dates for mountain or valley locations
- βWater proximity β Detect nearby lakes, rivers, or coastlines that moderate temperature
- βUrban heat islands β Account for city warming vs. rural cooling effects
- βFrost pocket detection β Identify cold-air settling areas in your area
Privacy First: Your coordinates are never linked to your identity. We use them only to calculate your climate zone and perform microclimate analysis, then discard any personal association.
Frequently Asked Questions
What hardiness zone am I in?
Enter your ZIP code or enable device location β Sow What? Now! maps your location to the USDA hardiness zone and gives zone-specific planting dates.
When should I start seeds indoors?
The app shows seed-starting windows for your zone β for example, start tomato seeds X weeks before your last frost. Use the weekly guide to plan direct sow vs. transplant dates.
Can I rely on ZIP code instead of GPS?
Yes β ZIP code provides reliable zone-level recommendations. Enabling GPS improves microclimate detection (elevation, nearby water, urban heat islands) for even finer guidance.
Does the app store my location?
Your location is never linked to your identity or account β we have no way to connect a stored location to a specific person. We use it to calculate your planting zone and microclimate only. See warmspringsorchard.com/privacy.html for full details.
