Plant Tracker

Stop filling out endless spreadsheets. Spend that time with your plants instead. ARKUSCH is a dedicated database and tracking system built for the serious plant collector. Whether you’re managing an indoor jungle or a complex outdoor garden, I built ARKUSCH to give you the reliable tools you need to manage your botanical treasures with precision, without the administrative overhead ruining the fun. Available on Mac, iPhone and iPad. With iCloud sync enabled, do the detailed editing on a large screen, then set pins and take photos with your phone out in the garden. KEY FEATURES - Total Data Customization: Every collection is unique. Record what actually matters to you: from lineage and acquisition costs to custom tags, soil pH, light intensity. You define the data; the app adapts to it. - Precision Task Management: Forget generic "water me" notifications. Create fully custom events and tasks with your own instructions (e.g., "Check root health in 3 months," or "Apply systemic treatment"). - Spatial Mapping: Never lose a dormant specimen again. Pinpoint your outdoor plants with GPS coordinates. When GPS isn't precise enough, check which plants are nearby — a lifesaver for finding dormant plants once they vanish in winter and tags fade. - Nothing Gets Lost: Even a plant you've lost stays in your records. Review the "Graveyard" to learn from what happened and improve your care going forward. - Data Portability & Sync (CSV & iCloud): Moving away from spreadsheets is easy with CSV import and export. Plus, with full iCloud sync, your collection is always up to date across all your devices. - Multilingual: Available in English, German, and Ukrainian. WHY ARKUSCH? Most plant apps are built for casual hobbyists. ARKUSCH is for serious collectors who want professional-grade data tracking, but would rather spend their time in the garden than in front of a laptop. - No Clutter: Focused entirely on data, history, and inventory. - High-Speed Workflow: Optimized for rapid, efficient logging right alongside your daily plant care routine. - True Ownership: Your data belongs to you—structured, secure, and fully under your control. Take full control of your collection. Download ARKUSCH today and build the professional database your plants deserve.
