Its rhythm
Water every 6 days
Feed every 4 waterings, as its species asks.
That’s where Plantempo starts. Then it learns this plant’s real rhythm from your local weather and a touch of the soil.
A starting point. Every plant keeps its own rhythm, and that one is yours to set.
Making more
By splitting the pot
The pot was always several plants. They already have roots, so they go straight into the garden.
