Local dates, units and appearance
Keep the garden’s clock, displayed temperatures and appearance aligned with how you use the app.

The garden’s location determines its local clock and weather context. A garden date can differ from the date on a travelling grower’s phone. Check the garden location and timezone when dates look wrong.
Settings offers a temperature-unit preference. This changes how temperatures are displayed; it does not make a forecast more certain or change a product’s safety instructions.
Weather can help find a useful time for a job. It does not prove soil moisture, disease, fruit load or the suitability of a chemical treatment. Record what is happening in the garden as well.
Light, Dark and System appearance are available in Settings. For more phone setup, see using Grovekeeper on your phone.
