In Bloom Wizard the term Grow is used for each of your unique growing projects.

You can create a Grow for a project you are going to start in the future, have already started, or have already completed. A Grow can have 1 plant, or more than 100 plants, but should generally be tracking the same type of plant.

Examples of a Grow

  • One pepper plant
  • Several cannabis plants
  • A small bunch of lavender
  • A bed of many beefsteak tomato plants
  • A group of apple tress


All the details/traits/statistics/etc regarding a Grow are called Attributes in Bloom Wizard.

When adding a Grow you will have several pages of attributes you can configure. Some attributes are automatically calculated.

If a Grow is Active then it will be represented by a Grow Card on the Dashboard.
