Inputs

Common bed history presets
Start with no record, nightshade, brassica, legume, or cucurbit bed-history presets before picking an exact previous crop.
Previous crop
Pick the crop that used this bed last; the planner translates crop names to plant family for same-family pressure checks.
Previous family
Advanced fallback for gardeners who already keep family-level bed records.
Current catalog filters
Builds the next-crop family mix from the seed plan you are browsing.
Evidence labels
Separates extension guidance and research-supported examples from lower-certainty companion claims.
