hi.. cowell again..
Been using since your beta 2 update.. really like the clone feature.. makes it alot easier to use.
I have just been taking clones and updating info and thought of a nifty idea...
I'm trying to organize my grow in a perpetual system.. trying to find a system that's not so labor intensive to plan my grow.
I have 6 different strains.. and a couple different phenotypes of a few different strains.
when taking clones and you add the clone as it is now.. my clone shows as 1 or 2 or 3... if I take that many clones off each plant... for example... cali o -1 cali o - 2 cali o 3
then I have to go and try and change it so they are all cali 0.
but with strawberry cough i have 4 plants.. and violator kush I have 5... so label them SC1 through SC4 and VK1-VK5. when I take 3 clones off SC3.. I get sc1 sc2 sc3... they are all changed back to sc3 manually... not a big deal honestly, and likely more effective if you aren't tracking as many strains.. but an idea to think about how to impliment.
I am mainly interested in the functionality of the calendar as it relates to planning for a grow and event reminders that are more easily added and visible. My thought is this... If I can input variables such as with a res change or top up for a specific res... I have 7 reses that are each changed on a different day.. and have different nute levels.. so I want to change res 4 every 2 weeks..and it's my transition to bloom res.. is there a way to add that event once adn have a calendar list that reminder in perpetude? every 2 weeks?
I also have the ability to add 4 plants to my room every 3 weeks.. but running 6 strains can make the juggle tricky - especially if you are trying to keep genetics running without a mother of each plant... if I run the same set up over and over.. can I add an event with the ease of (every 14 days remind me this).. or every 6 weeks remind me this.. every 3 weeks harvest, every 3 weeks topping, every 8 weeks I have another room to harvest....
same thing with taking clones to make sure they get 4 weeks veg before they are cloned and given a few more weeks before they are switched to flower... etc...
as you can see there's alot of things going on and if there was an easy spreadsheed that I could check dates on .. like if I had clones coming up in 2 days.. I could make sure I soak my cubes, have enough of them.. and know which plants and how many clones I need. Just a thought.. if it's just me not knowing how to do it using the software properly.. could you let me know? That would make my life a whole lot easier..

Yes, just install on the new machine and copy your data.zip from the old one. Reverse the process if you're starting out on this temp machine.

Not yet but we plan on working on A web enabled interface so you can bring your phone into your grow room with you and report back to your pc

Well I'm eager to see that, especially after seeing the quality you have made the grow software with. It is perfect! I like that it can help me do what I think is every aspect of growing is covered.

they could only charge you for what you have in your possession. besides, there are places in the states where you CAN grow.
No further evidence than the notes most people keep on paper anyhow. And these are encrypted.

This App is cool as shit....I downloaded and started populating data right away.
Just a suggestion if I may....I think that a feature for saving, import & export would be very helpful.
Also maybe you can add a feature where people can select from different seed banks or seed companies and purchase through the software and as you purchase all breeders info will be uploaded to app....it may be too much, but I think it would be really cool!!!
besides that, you guys get a +rep....this app is great and keep up the good work, this is very much appreciated!

It's a work in progress, we'll get to everything including this eventually just takes a while with our limited time.

Thanks in advance!!!

Sorry I mean the program uses XML as the data file, no need to export. If you look in the install directory you will see Data.zip when your not using the program which is encrypted with your password and HERBIQ.420 when you use the program and the data is in XML just make a copy. I can add a button to backup/export this in the next release to make it easier.
