Tendra: Plant Care & Journal

What's wrong with my plant? Every grower asks it, usually standing over a yellow leaf wondering if it's too much water or too little. Photograph the plant and Tendra gives you a disease diagnosis in seconds. It ranks the likely causes by probability, so you can see which fix to try first. Tendra is a full plant care app: disease diagnosis, care reminders that adapt to your conditions, a garden journal that remembers what you did last season, and variety data right down to the individual cultivar, including 140+ dragon fruit varieties with a bud-to-harvest tracker. No other plant app has that part. TRACK DRAGON FRUIT, BUD TO HARVEST A dragon fruit flower opens for one night. Miss it and you miss the pollination, and the fruit with it, so the timing is the whole game. • 140+ dragon fruit varieties, each with pollination type, flesh color, flavor, and harvest window • Log buds, blooms, and harvests in a few taps, as simple counts • Expected bloom and harvest dates built from your own records, and the estimate tightens every time you log one • A reminder the night your buds are due to open, so you are there to hand-pollinate • Bloom and harvest heatmaps that show which months your plants flower and fruit DIAGNOSE PLANT DISEASE Yellow leaves alone have four or five common causes, and the fixes contradict each other. More nitrogen, or less water? Guess wrong and you can lose weeks. • Photo diagnosis for plant disease, pests, and nutrient deficiencies • Causes ranked by likelihood, organic treatments first • Steps to treat it and stop it reaching the next plant YOUR GARDEN JOURNAL, PLUS CARE REMINDERS THAT ADAPT By February you can't remember when the figs woke up or which tomato actually produced. A journal you keep fixes that, and the reminders handle the part you forget. • Plant care reminders that adjust to where a plant lives: more water in full sun, less for one in a humid bathroom • Watering, feeding, and pruning schedules set per plant • Log what you did and what happened, with photos from cutting to harvest • Your whole care history on one timeline, so last year is there when you need it WHICH TOMATO ARE YOU GROWING? Other plant apps identify a species and stop there. Tendra knows the cultivars underneath, and they don't behave alike: a Cherokee Purple tomato and a Sungold want different things, and a Black Madeira fig keeps its own calendar. • Variety data across fruits and vegetables: tomatoes, cucumbers, watermelon, zucchini, eggplant, peppers, figs, citrus, avocado, mango, dragon fruit, and more • Pollination partners, harvest windows, flavor, and growth habit, variety by variety • Disease resistance by cultivar, so you can pick the tougher ones ADVICE FOR YOUR CLIMATE Most gardening advice was written for someone else's weather, and when it fails in your yard, you blame yourself instead of the climate it assumed. • Compare notes with people growing the same plants near you • Answers from growers who share your soil and your pests SHARE WHAT YOU GROW If you grow something rare, help keep it going. • Document heirloom cultivars and where yours came from • Pass varieties to growers who'll keep them alive A Plant Exchange for trading cuttings, scions, and seeds with nearby growers is on the way. Early members get in first. There's a plant identifier too: point the camera, get a name and a care guide. Plant ID is everywhere now, so we'd rather be the app you open after the photo. WHO IT'S FOR Rare fruit growers first: the people with a dragon fruit trellis, a fig collection, a grafted avocado, and cultivar names they can recite. Then vegetable gardeners tired of mystery failures, and houseplant people between their first pothos and a full shelf. If you want a garden journal you'll open in January, start here.
