I keep seeing people not know that they’re overwatering their plants because they’re following the schedule even though their plants are still wet. And I understand, it literally tells you to do it…but don’t. Every plant is different. Some like to be damp most of the time, some like to almost dry out, some like to completely dry out, etc. Also your home environment and substrate can cause your plant to dry out slower or faster than others. I wish it was as simple as following an app’s schedule, but in \*most\* cases it is not. Sincerely, A concerned plant friend that doesn’t want your plants to get root rot 👍🏼 ## 10件のコメント ### Kyleさんが2025-05-12にコメントしました The snooze button is your friend everyone! ### Chloeさんが2025-05-12にコメントしました I wish I’d known this sooner!! My Thai constellation got such bad root rot when I first started using the app so now I use the watering advice just as a reminder to check on my plants soil and usually use the snooze button a couple of times before they actually need to be watered, still love the app though!! ### Idaさんが2025-05-12にコメントしました We totally agree that every plant is different which is why we use around 30 parameters to try to get as close to each plants need as possible, but we still do recommend that you check the soil before watering and snooze if needed (maybe we can make this even clearer in the instructions as well) 😃. Would also like to recommend to make sure that all settings are filled in for each plant, as that allows us to better tailor the schedule to their needs 🪴 . And if there's still issues: please reach out through support so we get a chance to help out 😃 #### Justinさんが2025-05-12に返信しました Is there a way we can add a suggestion for the app? #### Victoria Maddisonさんが2025-05-12に返信しました Yes this really is a wonderful app and it has greatly improved since I started using it, so absolutely no shade. I think y’all are doing everything you can, and adjusting the schedule when we snooze is a great tool too! Plant care takes some trial and error in the beginning, I just feel bad when people don’t realize their plant may not need water yet when they’re following a schedule. (any schedule, not just planta’s). #### Idaさんが2025-05-13に返信しました Justin 😃 yes! You can either send it directly to us at contact@getplanta.com or create a post in ”Feedback on Planta” 🥳🪴 ### Topekatwisterさんが2025-05-12にコメントしました Your pot makes a huge difference as well! ### n4tgeeoさんが2025-05-12にコメントしました Amen ### Struggling\_PlantLadyさんが2025-05-12にコメントしました Thank you for this!! ### Doryさんが2025-05-13にコメントしました I also don’t like how it hates if you put something in glass, mark it as being grown in water, so then you go to say no drainage and it wants to caution and red flag that --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
