I valued your suggestions and followed them with my own opinions.  I would also like for you to tell me how to get them to rebook the white leaves.  Do I need to purchase a grow lamp!

*2026-08-21, version 1.150*

Love the app, however I wish you would add a vacation feature so I can plan for being gone and do an update when I get back from vacation. Also can the update feature rediagnosis plant health by itself?
Thank you!
