Question 1

How do I find the best month to sow my crop?

Accepted Answer

Select your city and crop — the calculator shows the sowing window based on local seasonal data. For most Indian cities, the post-monsoon (Oct–Nov) and winter (Nov–Feb) periods suit leafy greens best.

Question 2

Does hydroponics speed up the growing cycle?

Accepted Answer

Yes — hydroponic crops typically harvest 20–30% faster than soil-grown equivalents because roots access nutrients directly. The calculator adjusts the days-to-harvest figure automatically when you select Hydroponics as your method.

Question 3

My city is not listed — what should I do?

Accepted Answer

Pick the nearest city with a similar climate zone. For example, cities in the same state usually share similar monsoon timing and temperature bands, so the sow windows will be close enough for practical use.
