Is anybody else getting this message when you are strictly watering per Planta’s advice? It happened twice yesterday and now the first plant that came up to be watered today when I clicked completed this message popped up.

    I feel like I’ve gotten that before too. Planta’s watering schedule is sometimes a bit aggressive for my plants. I try checking them if they need it before I just water blindly. And if it feels like they don’t then I ask it to remind me in two days again. After I do that is when I’ve seen that message typically that I’ve been overwatering on my own. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I feel like my one pothos was just being too wet and I was worried it would develop fungus gnats.

      Yes, me too, exactly what you described. I just ignore it but it’s a bit annoying 😆

    It’s been 100° here so I have to keep up with my outdoor plants by checking them daily. But for the most part, Planta is good and I’m able to follow its advice but it’s just confusing when that is what I’m doing and it’s telling me I’m overwatering.

      OK, I think something is definitely wrong because when you go into the Care info for this particular plant, it says to water every six days. It came up to water today gave me the message that I’m watering it too much but when I look, it’s going to tell me to water it again tomorrow! Definitely something going wacky with the app here

    they have an overwatering message?? 😆 i've only seen the underwatering one because the planta schedule is trying to drown my plants. snooze button is my favorite button on this app.

    I’ve seen a lot of people advise against using plantas watering schedule a lot of people say it is inaccurate and leads to overwatering

      For most of my clients, it will eventually adjust accordingly. Like if you don’t water it because it’s wet it will adjust the watering to be further apart. I just don’t understand why if a plant inside the app is saying it needs to be watered every six days why it had me water it today and it’s saying it’s going to be watered again tomorrow after it just gave me the overwatering message!

      It’s done strange things like this before. Hopefully it’ll work itself out, but I do always check plants myself and just don’t go by what the app says

      I stop listening to Planta. Too much AI for me. I just water every week when needed.

    Yes, I agree with all that it can lead to overwatering. So I mostly use the watering prompt as “check soil” prompt and decide before watering blindly

    I received this for every plant yesterday and I only water on their schedule. Seems like an update glitch

    If Planta suggests watering check first. I frequently snooze watering because my plants aren’t ready yet. It suggests often but I tend to think of it as ‘check if it needs water’ rather than ‘definitely water now’

    Yes! Been getting these alerts a lot lately when my schedules haven’t changed. Not sure what happened. I also noticed a few months ago that many of my schedules changed to have me water much more often than it should’ve, so I had to manually delay them.

    I used to only get that notification (or the opposite one) for one or two plants that weren’t doing too good and needed better soil mixes. Now that I have everything on lock, I haven’t had that pop up in forever. Suddenly five of my plants that I water per the schedule (which is also just the right time for when they need water) that I need to contact dr planta because I’m watering too much. I have an alocasia that spans from my living room to my office and needs a gallon of water every 2 days. I was 2 days late this week for it and I got the “too often” when I watered it LATE. I think it’s a bug on the app lately
