Is the pro version worth it?

For more info: Im kinda new to plants and Im loving it, until now I have been watering them when they dry out or almost dry out, but it would be nice to have a reminder to know when to do it. what more features does the pro version have that you consider useful #thanks!
I'm going to be honest, Greg can absolutely tell you to overwater. When I was starting out, I nearly killed my snake plant! It's still alive right now, but no new growth at all. It does tell you where a plant should be in terms of sunlight, and it's pretty basic but okay. And also, you do risk overwatering following Greg to a T. You're probably much better off watering when they dry or almost dry out! I have Greg for the helpful family community. Also, you get three months of Super Greg for free if you refer a friend and they join!
@LittleSongbird thank you so much for the info! Ive been seeing several post saying that a plants soil was still damp when greg told the poster to water. so that was my concern haha. I will stick to the regular plan for now :) ty!!
@SharpLancefern I agree with @LittleSongbird the app will initially encourage you to water maybe too frequently. My understanding is that it is designed to learn and then act as a regular reminder. I push the snooze button for watering frequently, but gradually the app is changing the reminders to match how often I water. And it does remind me to water plants that I have forgotten about!
If you have a lot of plants and can't keep track of when they were last watered then yes
I def think it is worth it. Not just because of the funktions. I tried it for a time for free (you could edit waterering and such in the plant edit, it is just easier with the buttons especially with many plants).
But I fell completly in love with the community after scrolling here for a while, and figued I had to support this initiative so I feel like I am giving something back😊
And as the others say, the app learns from your care-routine!πŸͺ΄πŸŒ±πŸ’š
I forgot to mention that with super Greg you get free shipping at the Greg shop, so I am excited to take advantage of that. Shipping plants can be expensive!
I love this plant app. I’m so glad I signed up for the super Greg. I have 283 plants so I have them all in inventory and the app tells me when to water them. I don’t necessarily water them when Greg says to because I used my moisture meter to check each plant before I water them, so it’s really up to the individual. If you wanna spend the extra money there’s lots of pluses and perks to it.
Did you know that you can set your watering schedule on three different patterns?
@clairsheart can you tell me more about the 3 different patterns and how to do that? Ive not seen anything like that
