Most plant advice online is written for a garden that is not yours: the wrong hemisphere, the wrong soil, twice the light. These prompts are built to force the specifics out first. They ask for your aspect, your soil, your climate and your honest watering habits before offering anything, and they say plainly when the answer is that the plant is dead and you should stop. There are diagnostic prompts that work from symptoms rather than guesses, layout prompts for a bed or a balcony that account for mature size rather than the size in the pot, seasonal task lists pinned to your actual latitude, and one prompt whose entire job is to tell you which plant to give up on so the others get the attention. Written for people who keep plants alive, not for people who photograph them.

Working out what is wrong with a plant, what is eating it, and whether it is worth saving at all.
Watering tests, repotting calls, pruning timing, compost mixes, and taking cuttings that root.
Matching plants to your light, your climate and the small print on the label before you buy.
Bed and balcony layouts, the jobs this month, and records that stop you relearning the same lesson.
Crops worth the space, sowing calendars worked back from frost, and pairings with real evidence.
