Basic question .... in the plant app it asks you to put in size of plant. I assume this relates to reporting and water amount etc but it doesn't say HOW to measure them. Height? Width?

I usually do height/ length, since that’s how I see new growth coming in

### Matilda reageerde op 2025-02-21

Height, I just use an estimation

### Bebe🌵🤍 reageerde op 2025-02-21

Honestly, I just estimate. I don’t think I’ve ever measured a pot

Height.

Height or spread, depending on if it grows up or out
