Stop guessing when to water. For caudex, agave & staghorn growers: AI watering dates, QR tags to ID & transfer plants, and records that learn from every loss.
A serious management app for caudex plants, agaves, and staghorn ferns.
When did I last water that one? Once you're growing dozens of plants, it's easy to lose track of watering.
BotaCodex is a management tool for caudex and succulent enthusiasts, where AI suggests the right watering based on each species and your own records.
■ Key Features
▼ AI Watering Suggestions From species, season, growing environment, and your past records, AI suggests watering tailored to each of your plants — accounting for seasonal phases like dormancy and active growth.
▼ Family Tree & Lineage Link plants grown from division, seed, or cuttings to their parent plants. Trace lineage across generations with a family tree that also handles crosses with multiple parents and backcrosses. Viewing the family tree is free; linking to a parent is a Pro feature.
▼ AI Photo Consultation (Pro) Share a photo with symptoms like "looking weak lately" or "leaves dropping" and consult AI about your plant.
▼ QR Tag Generation (Pro) / Scan (Free) Generate and print a QR code for each plant. Stick it on the pot and scan to open that plant's details instantly (scanning is free). And when you pass a plant on to someone, they just scan the QR to inherit it — watering, growth, and photo records included. The time you've invested carries over (transfer).
▼ Memorial & AI Loss Analysis (Pro) Record plants you've sadly lost. AI analyzes the cause and keeps it as a lesson so you don't repeat the same mistake (AI analysis is Pro).
■ A Professional Management Experience, In Your Hand A calm, dark-mode-unified interface. Designed for observing, recording, and analyzing your plants — a serious management experience. Its spacious, refined layout keeps managing dozens of plants comfortable.
