Care That Gets Smarter Over Time
Tap 'Check soil', feel the top inch, tell the app what you find. After a few checks, it learns your plant's real rhythm and adjusts automatically.
- Uses pot size, light and season to refine the starting rhythm
- A quick soil check before watering helps reduce guesswork
- After a few checks, your suggested routine starts to adjust
- Move rooms or change pots? Update the details so it can recalibrate
The more you check, the more useful the rhythm becomes.
