Unfortunately, Planta doesn't have the option for in-ground garden plants at the moment. We totally get that it would be super handy, and it's something we're hoping to add in the future.

You can still though set up custom schedules for your in ground plants to keep things on track.

It might not be a perfect fit, but maybe it can be a workaround for now 🙂🌱

I use it for in-ground plants. I just choose “no pot” and the type of soil like basic garden soil. Works for me.

Ya makes sense, i intially thought its only for air plants. I’ll give it a try. Do you select largest pot size in that case? Or leave that info “missing”?

I do the same thing!

I leave that info missing.
