If you have more than one instance of a variety on your plan and want to add unique notes to each separate planting, you'll need to create a new variety for each instance of that plant (or row/block of plants) so they're listed individually on your Plant List.
Setting a unique variety
Double-tap on the plant in your plan (or tap once on the plant to highlight it then tap on the Edit button in your plan's toolbar) to open the Edit Plant box.
Tap on Customize Varieties.
Tap Add New.
Give your variety a unique name to distinguish it from any other instances of the same variety on your plan. Tap Add.
Editing variety spacing
Tap Edit if you need to change the spacings or sowing, planting and harvesting times.
Check the Use Custom Spacings box and edit the spacings. Use the Between Plants value if planting in blocks, or the Between plants in rows and Between rows value if planting in rows.
Editing variety Sowing, Planting and Harvest Times
Check the Use Custom Times box and tap on the calendars for the months or half-months that are appropriate for you growing this plant.
Tap Done, then Save All Changes.
Adding and viewing Plant Notes
There are two ways to add or view notes for a plant:
Double tap on the plant on your plan (or tap on it once then tap on Edit at the bottom of your screen). Scroll down to Plant Notes and type in your notes. Tap Done when finished.
2. Alternatively, tap on the Plant List tab above your planning grid:
Scroll down to find the plant you wish to view in the list, then tap Notes & Details.
Tap Add. (If you already have a note, this changes to the Edit button.)
Type or edit your note, then tap Done. This note will only be shown for that specific variety.
