bud - Grow Journal & Community

Very clean and intentional design. It is a little laggy, but app development is hard and this app is free so whatever. It is definitely the best of its kind. I personally don’t use it for ‘grows’, just my regular boring plants, but I have showed it to a few friends who grow and they are obsessed. The social aspect of seeing other people’s grows is super nifty. Hats off to the creators and developers. 10 outta 10 would recommend.

I think there’s definitely room for improvement but it does a good job at what it does. Allows notes on each update and multiple pictures. I wish I could label each sub picture so people know what each is. I grow 4 at a time and don’t feel like making 4 different grow series as all 4 share the same nutrients and time schedule. But for what it’s worth, it’s the best I’ve found thus far. I like to browse other people’s grows, it’s fun to see everyone’s grows and you can see who’s new to growing and who’s just starting. I think they should have categories for the types of grows. Hydro types, soil types, indoor, and outdoors. Would make for a great resource... maybe even a chat area. Blah, it is what it is. Good app!

I like the app for growing. Helps keep track of feeds and when I switch to flower etc. fun to look back at old pics and see the progress made or if u had a problem in your previous grow you could go back and see what you wrote. The interface could use some work though. Whenever you search for something and click one of the searched options and decide you want to look at a different option it takes you all the way back to the home page. Also replying to people is weird, I never know if anyone gets my replies. These may seem like little things but there’s only so many things you can even do on this app to where I think those could be fixed.

I enjoy using the app to keep track of my grow and others that are just starting out.i find it very useful but it needs some work. The app is very laggy and slow at times and has connection errors a lot where the only way to fix it is to delete and reinstall the app which is annoying but fixable with updates. I'd like to see in a future update the ability to view a persons grow by tapping their name in the comments (making their name a link to their grows)and also to post more then one photo at a time.

I had to completely rewrite my review because I have learned to use this thing. I'll keep this short. This is by far the best app I have used for a visual diary of my grows. Create updates at significant times in your grow. Example post one when seeds pop. From there weekly updates are entered along with a photo. So let's say it's transplant day and I want to document that. You can do so with this app. Create an update describe the event and snap a photo. That easy. I have created journals for my currently budding plants and my doner or mother plants. Once again great visual diary to see progress and help remember important event dates like when you switched to 12/12 or when did I take those cuttings?
