Hi Macpeters,
do be careful whenever you use pictures without consent of the owner -- it might become expensive.
Why don't you ask people here in the forum if you may use their photos? This is for free and legal.

Dear all,
I admit I really am impressed by your efforts and energy. About 10 years ago we had a similar discussion here in the forum. I had just started to program my database. Next to nobody then was interested in electronics -- card files & diaries were *the* method of choice. Then there were vehement discussions about the plant tags you put into the pots, about their material, and about the best kind of pen etc. to write on them.

Today many use Excel or standard software, or program a database, or even program their own apps: Times really are changing!

I wish you all success & loads of fun with your solutions

Thought I'd ask again
Any opinions on this program?
Has anyone had experience with this software?

I'm old-fashioned but I live in an area with frequent power outages. Perhaps because of that I much prefer pencil and paper.

I'm using my own cactus daily planner for all my plants. It's not quite all that I want but it's ok for now. You can make watering schedules, and tracks age, but no real way of tracking growth unfortunately. If you do the watering schedules and you have plants outside I would highly recommend you group them according to the likelihood they'll be rained on or it will mess with the schedule.
