Free Grow Software!

What's wrong with auto-tracking? You could add the lineage plants to the dead phase and make them the mother/father that way.
I thought about doing the "dead" phase idea to input the lineage but I think it wanted me to indicate a grow room too, so I created one that says "InformationOnly" or something like that. But then I wasn't sure why it would be helpful to go back very far down this road when it wouldn't end up displaying a pedigree map/family tree like I was hoping for. (That of course would be sweet but maybe more difficult than text and charts, I realize...)

I also looked into genealogy software but mostly it is super gender specific. But I was able to mock up this lineage map in ScionPC, a free program and not bad it seems!

What do you think Luce?

Oh ok you're talking about the whole lineage tree. That's kind of what I originally pictured creating, the only control that looks like that is called the tree view control (see pic attached). I'll see if I can add something like that in the next release, would be cool to have for tracking genetics.

Thanks :leaf:

awesome program for sure! much better then the other 'paid for' one I tried and haven't used in 5months.

requests so far:

-add Tab:Strains
-populate with base data that will be used in {tab:Seeds/Plants/Harvest} (as a user with 25+ moms and various 'trials' going on, this would be ideal. I suppose I could setup a base data set {eg: new plant - Template1} and clone it, maybe that is the right way ..... but seems like a seperate Strains tab is more logical/efficient for mass updating .... especially when getting a new strain and having to tweak the parameters after the grow is done, but plants are in veg .... would have to update each one individually ... copy/paste-copy/paste-rinse-cycle-repeat ;)

tab:Seeds/Plants/Harvest
-add the ability to select multiple plants for phase change. changing 20-30 one at a time can be a pain. :)

tab:Options
-add backup to specific 'Backup' folder (add folder to root install), instead of dumping into the program root folder. easier to backup a folder/copy with other software since backup file name changes
-add ability to change backup location (drive or network)
-add auto-backup function

love the program so far and haven't even scratched the surface of it's capabilities yet. love even more the Dev format. nice work, seriously. I know how much time and effort these things take and it takes someone(s) with devotion and heart to make it happen.

Cheers!

Thanks! We're just getting started, lots more to come ;) Will take a look at putting your requests into 0.5 thanks for the feedback! So far I have a new section written for tracking res stats and a good bite on the new encryption library. I've also just started a new web application that you will be able to use to update your data remotely with your wireless device too, initially just plants though, will have to build up support.

Wireless will be nice, so I can update with my ipad from downstairs.

my exact thoughts as well, but from a larger scale perspective. the ability to have a central 'server' so to speak that holds that master dataset, and being able to update while with the girls (with a tablet or phone device) would save a ton of time/effort long term - especially if there are 2+ people working at the same time {would need ability to share dataset updating realtime}. wouldn't need to be much either - {nutes, height, events, notes} maybe?

...to me, a system like this has commercial potential with using updatable handlhelds connected to a central server. as more medical grow ops come online, software that can handle larger scales is essential for plant and warehouse management. this is a great way to get it all nailed and honed down. to this end ..... might I also suggest considering future (far) incorporation of live video streaming (more of a feature then anything .... doesn't help em grow,lol) for access by web/mobile. adding a patient tab is another thought (should be built HIPAA compliant to start). with the strains tab: adding additional info like type of effect, medicinal properties (eg: good for Glaucoma, bad for headaches), THC/CBD/CBN ratios (if testing ... a log of this would be good too, to track ratios from moms through various grows) ......

I just came out of an IT/Dev job and into this one .... so I've been tossing around all kinds of ideas for months, and you certainly have a good solid product start.

another feature request:

tab:Plant Reports - ability to generate and print various report types (eg: generate single report of Test Plants 1-20, choosable fields - Height, Growth Rate, Individual Weight, Total Weight. generate single report for Red Diesel, time frames, weights).
- expand reports to include Rooms/equipment (asset management/tracking/reporting)

You will be able to use the webapp I'm developing to access the data from your android/ipad/iphone/etc. I already submitted the start of the project, should have it usable in a week or so :) Will initially run on IIS, I'll see if the mono module will support running it on apache later.

Have you considered tomcat over apache? I only suggest it since vmware uses tomcat as well.
