Don't mind Greg's watering amounts. Those do not always make sense. Just water thoroughly when it needs. Also, use a bit of caution with the suggested frequency at first. Greg needs to learn first and adjust its base value. Water thoroughly when you think it needs watering and tag it as watered and Greg will adjust the schedule with time.

My best bet is also, that Greg just was missing pot size to better calculate its estimate for the amount. They are rough estimates at best, with one variable missing, or gets messed up. Use your own best guess and then the app will learn and adjust to remind you in time

The reason is Greg takes the plant card information into consideration. According to the plant card, you plant has defaulted to a small pot with no drainage and the app assumes it's inside.

Making changes to the plant card will help the app make better watering suggestions.

Then again, I'm a watering-hose-type of gal. My plants outside get the watering hose and I go to town ... especially in the summer!

I'm glad you found Greg, Maria!
