- Use the calculators for personal or commercial gardening purposes, free of charge.
- Share links to any page, including links carrying your own input values.
- Quote short passages with credit and a link back to the page you took them from.
- Print pages for your own use in the garden.
You may not:
- Republish the written content or data files in bulk, or use them to train a model or populate another site, without written permission.
- Present the content as your own work, or remove attribution.
- Scrape the site at a rate that degrades it for other people, or attempt to interfere with its operation or security.

Intellectual property
The text, design, calculator implementations and compiled data files on this site are © 2026–2026 Muzamil Ali, except where a third-party source is credited. Underlying agronomic facts — a seeding rate, a spacing figure, a conversion factor — are not owned by anyone and are credited to their sources in the repository’s data files.
No warranty
The site and everything on it is provided without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and accuracy. Results are estimates, for the reasons set out in the disclaimer, which forms part of these terms. Availability is not guaranteed.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Muzamil Ali shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss, or for any loss of crops, materials, profit or opportunity, arising from use of this site or reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Third-party content
Pages may carry advertising served by third parties and may link to external sites. Those parties are responsible for their own content and practices. See the privacy policy for what advertising involves.
Changes
These terms may be updated; the date at the top of the page shows when they last were. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws applicable in the operator’s place of residence, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and nothing here affects consumer rights you have under the law of your own country. Questions about these terms go to hello@soilsums.com.
