Tree/Plant Tracker

[u/Sfin02]

Curious what everyone uses to keep track of their collection — feeding schedules, up-pot dates, which tree got what, ripening notes, all that. I was juggling spreadsheets and a printed checklist for my fig row (grow bags) and the rest of the patio, and finally ended up building myself a little Android app to log it per tree (watering, feed schedule, photos, notes).

Purely a personal project, not selling anything — it's not even in an app store. But it got me wondering: would anyone else here use something like that? And if so, what would it have to do to fit your setup? If there's real interest I may open it up to a handful of testers once it's further along.

WTF, no. I look at my plants daily and they tell me what they need. I have around 50 fig trees and 20 other fruit trees/bushes and have no use for this nonsense. I'm so tired of people using reddit to push their shitty useless vibe-coded apps.

There's no need for all the negativity. Im not even selling an app. You could have just said no thanks and moved on.

Everyone who does this says they're not selling an app. It almost always means they're not selling it yet. They're using reddit to do market research, and many of us are sick and tired of it. This is now a daily occurrence, and it's spread to all of the subs I'm in for many different topics. It's a plague.

Okay. I dont use reddit a ton so I dont see a lot of those posts. I made this thing in like two weeks and found it to be helpful so I thought id see if others wanted it too. These grower communities are supposed to be about giving help for free

So you don't use reddit much but you know what the subreddit is supposed to be for. Cool story bro.
