RandoziPlant Watering Planner
Every plant has its own rhythm, and nobody remembers which one was watered last Tuesday. List them once and see what is overdue, what is due today and what can wait.
Enter today's date to plan.
How it works
- Write one plant per line: name, how often (3 days, 2 weeks), then the date of the last watering as YYYY-MM-DD.
- Check that today's date is right; change it to plan ahead.
- Read the table: overdue plants come first, then today, then the rest.
- Use the 14-day calendar to group the watering days, then copy the plan.
What people use it for
A full windowsill
Keep a dozen pots on different schedules without a note on each one.
Before a holiday
See which plants will run past their date while you are away and who needs to water them.
Sharing the job
Copy the 14-day plan for a flatmate or neighbour who is watering for you.
Questions
- How is the next watering worked out?
- Last watering date plus the interval. A plant watered on 18 October every 3 days is due on 21 October; on 22 October it is one day overdue. A plant with no date is shown as due today, because the planner cannot know when it was last watered.
- What does “soon” mean?
- Due tomorrow or the day after. Today is due today, and anything earlier is overdue. The calendar puts an overdue plant on today and then repeats it at its own interval.
- Does it know how much water a plant needs?
- No. The interval is yours: it depends on the plant, the pot, the light and the season, so a plant is better judged by touching the soil than by a calendar. This is a reminder of your own routine, not care advice.
- What formats are accepted, and is anything saved?
- Commas, semicolons or tabs between the three columns, with quotes around a name that contains a comma. Intervals are whole days or weeks from 1 day to 365. A first line that looks like a header is skipped, and a line that cannot be read is listed with the reason. Nothing is uploaded or stored: reload the page and the list is gone, so copy it first.
