## What is PlantyBox?

PlantyBox is your assistant for plants in pots: on the balcony, the terrace, the windowsill or indoors. Take a photo, and AI tells you what it is and how to keep it healthy, day by day.

SNAP AND IDENTIFY
Take a photo: PlantyBox recognizes the species and suggests the right pot, watering and care. Not sure? It asks for a close-up of a leaf to tell similar plants apart.

REMINDERS THAT CHECK THE WEATHER
Watering and fertilizing reminders adapt to your local forecast: if rain is coming, you don't need to water. Frost or a storm ahead? You get a warning the evening before.

KNOW WHEN TO HARVEST
For vegetables, herbs and fruit plants, PlantyBox tells you when your crop should be ready, what signs to look for and how to pick it. Not sure? Take a photo and ask the AI.

HEALTH CHECK
Yellow leaves or strange spots? Photograph them: the AI suggests the likely cause and the remedies to follow.

WHAT TO SOW THIS MONTH
A sowing and harvest calendar for your climate zone, plus practical guides on watering, pots, soil, pruning and pests.

ORGANIZE YOUR GARDEN
Group plants by area (balcony, kitchen, terrace), keep a growth diary with photos and timelapse, and press and hold any plant to water, fertilize or move it in a tap.

PLANTYBOX PREMIUM
Unlimited scans, unlimited AI diagnoses, the full care report, AI growth-stage detection and unlimited plants.
