A lot of people from the US seem to forget that they're excluding the majority of customers by asking you to enter a zipcode that will only work in the US. It's incredibly annoying if you're part of that majority. With that said - good luck :-)
Lovely design. Extend this to Canada and you have my usage.
While it's nice to know when and what to grow seed, there are a lot more nuances to gardening for each specific region. Having a community of local gardeners is an invaluable resource for material and moral support. This is coming from my observations of a few cities' community gardens.
Not to mention having a social network will make your service a lot more human and resilient.
Beginner gardeners usually start out with herb pots (i.e. basil, oregano, parsley) because they offer longer-lasting rewards for less initial effort and applied skills.
Having this option may give impatient beginners a sweet preview of what they can do (which of course translates to more revenue for you), as suppose to trying to grow difficult plants, get discouraged by failures and never use your service again.
Hm... You'll know who is planting what, where? I'd love to build a local produce exchange on top of this!
Bring on the Internationalization (even if just of the planting calendar)
Focus now on making your business GREAT for the market near you, and later expand to other countries.
