VelVet 2008 - Breeding/growing free Software

So i'm posting here about my software VelVet :)


The first was done in 2002, and it was mainly a grow-diary, but was not perfect to my mind. Anyway i recorded 20.000 downloads.


I've just did a new version, especially for people wanting to make a complete follow-up of its selections, its crosses, its plants, its stems, seeds and the other plants mothers , clones or cuttings.


The files are saved as a .str or a png image, this file can be shared/exchanged with friends, or with other growers/farmers, when sending them a strain for testing as new variety/plant.


VelVet2008 is coded in Rebol, the code source is thus completely and fully legible, and he can be used under 40 different OS (windows, linux, mac, ...).


the link !
it's here --> V e l V e t 2 0 0 8 - Home



here is a screenshot :




French and English version are available actually, and it's, of course, freeware ^^



i hope u will enjoy my tool

Thanx to my sponsor : Bluehemp seeds , Darwin seeds , and Sensi Seeds



Cheers ^^

in velvet 2002 it was an .EXE so a virus was possible, sadly ...

But this time it's impossible, because it's a script file, fully readable, it's not compiled.
Just download the zip file, take the velvet2008.r (u can read it in a notepad), and run it using rebview (available freely on rebol website).

and you are done, no virus because it's a 'open source script', and it can be run on 40 different OS.

i'm not a fucker :) just a breeder/coder ^^

you should do a sort of tutorial showing what all the program can do and kinda explain how to use it some

I have used this and it is fantastic! No virus or spyware, just a great program. It is very powerful, and I don't even make full use of all the features.

Try it folks!

Thanks Velvetine. People here are using your program as it occasionally is mentioned in threads.

a tutorial ... why not

but people knowing how to grow and to breed will know how to use the software, and i'm here for answering if problems :)

Picasso345 i'm happy to see a velvet2008 user so enthusiast :)

My idea was to make a sort of universal "strain-file-exchange" format. And so it becomes easy to share strains and clones, and in the same time sending by email.
A great job will be a website with many .str files.

cheers

I think it's great that your putting it out there for everyone to use free :-) I'm just a personal use grower so I shy away from any written recordings of my endeavors, but I could see this as a nice program for a breeder or large scale grower.

Can your software be modified for other crops? I could see myself using it to track production on my regular garden.

I'm on Linux, running Gutzy Gibbon (Ubuntu), gotta download the Rebol/VIEW tarzip or gunzip first..? I'm not sure what kernel I'm running, shit hell. :lol: I don't even track my womanating, will I use this to track my hatchling progress..? Mayhaps, but I have to be careful as I've just about used up my h/d space.

This is a CLEAN program people!

I haven't used it yet.. but I bookmarked the site.

When I get along to breeding I will start a seedbank of my own. Expect some crazy strains in a few years....

:peace:
