Period (Start, phases, and end of cultivation)

Set the start date of the cultivation and the number of days or weeks for each phase of the cultivation (germination, vegetative, flowering, harvest). The tool automatically calculates the number of days, weeks, and the end of the cultivation, providing you with a clear view of your plants' life cycle. The cultivation end date can be modified from the main panel, offering additional flexibility in management.

Fertilization plan

If you do not use fertilizers during cultivation, you can skip this step.

For those who use water with nutrient solution for plants, it is possible to plan each week which fertilizers will be used and their respective quantities. The measures of the fertilization plan are always based on a quantity of 10 liters of water. Thanks to the Water Indicator tool, you can know the exact amount of fertilizers based on the amount of water used, ensuring optimal nutrition for your plants.

Add event to the cultivation to record an action done or to be done

With the event creation tool, you can specify the type of action to be taken (e.g., "Store water", "Sow", "Transplant", "Prune", "Weed", "Defoliate", etc.), along with the date, time, and any additional notes. This helps you keep a detailed record of all the activities performed or planned for your plants.

For example, the "Store water" event is useful to remind you to set aside water that needs to rest before being used for watering. This ensures your plants receive water free of unwanted chemicals.

Prepare nutrient solution for your plants

The Prepare nutrient solution event type is essential to remind you of the exact amount of fertilizer to apply to the nutrient solution for your plants.

You can copy the measures from another event, even from another cultivation, or choose those defined in your fertilization plan. This feature allows you to maintain consistency in the doses applied, facilitating nutrient management.

Additionally, you can define free measures by adding fertilizers from the cabinet, offering maximum flexibility in preparing nutrient solutions. You can set the amount of sample water used for the measures and the total amount to prepare, ensuring your plants receive optimal nutrition.

If the capacity of the container used for the various mixtures is equal to or greater than the total amount to be prepared, the two measures will obviously be the same, further simplifying the process.

Weigh plants before watering

The Weigh event allows you to record the weight of each individual plant, enabling you to precisely monitor their growth and water consumption.

You can directly adjust the plant list by moving the slider or tapping the arrows to increase or decrease the recorded weight. This intuitive feature allows you to easily update data without complications.

By tapping on the plant image, you can set the weight value using the device's keyboard, ensuring even more precise and faster data entry.

For each plant, you can view the amount of water given last time and the last recorded weight before that date. By tapping on this information, you can access the detailed history of watering and recorded weights for that plant, providing a complete and detailed overview of the care received.

Check the status of the plants

In the main cultivation panel, there is the Plants section, where you can monitor the health status of each of your plants. This section provides a clear and detailed overview, offering crucial information to ensure your plants receive the proper care.

For each plant, you can see the amount of water given and the number of days since the last watering. This allows you to keep track of the irrigation schedule and ensure the plants do not go too long without water.

If you have recorded the plant's weight before watering, ColtivApp displays the plant's status based on the comparison between the current weight and the amount of water given.

Happy expression: if the remaining amount of water is still sufficient, the plant will show a happy icon, indicating it is well hydrated.

Sad expression: if the plant's weight has significantly decreased compared to the last amount of water given, the plant will show a sad icon, indicating it needs water.

This feature allows you to respond promptly to your plants' needs, ensuring they always receive the right amount of water and nutrients to grow healthy and strong.

The Water event allows you to record the amount of water given to each individual plant, ensuring precise and monitored irrigation.

You can see the total amount of water given as you modify the values for each plant. This allows you to have complete control over water consumption and ensure each plant receives the right amount.

As with the "Weigh" event, you can directly adjust the indicators for each plant by moving the slider or tapping the arrows. Additionally, you can set a uniform value for all plants and then customize it based on the specific needs of each plant. This flexibility allows you to adapt irrigation to the individual conditions of your plants, ensuring personalized attention for each one.
