Notes on a tree

Observations make the garden’s history useful. Record the date, the relevant tree and what you saw, rather than only a conclusion such as “unhealthy”. New growth, soil moisture, fruit load and the result of a previous job can all matter.

1. 1Open Log or start an observation from a tree.
2. 2Choose the right tree where the observation is tree-specific. Use the picker or mention suggestions rather than relying on a name in free text.
3. 3Write what you observed, add a photo if helpful, and save. Check that the save succeeds.

A garden-wide note and a tree-specific note carry different meaning. If you later discover that a saved fact is wrong, correct the record instead of adding another contradictory note without explanation.

Standing preferences belong in House rules. A one-off observation belongs in the dated log.
