Your garden,
one good round.
Saturday, Sep 19, 2026
No new plateau-confirmed watering. #6 is already watered and weighed; H3’s owner check resolves the old strand follow-up. Weigh the 14 remaining useful samples, hold #4, and keep the narrow G3/#3 readiness checks.

Today's quick list
Water candidates have a confirmed plateau; water only if your usual moisture/readiness check confirms they are ready. Dry-reference-only pots stay out of the Water list.
No watering candidates with a confirmed plateau today.

Dry reference reached — waiting for plateau 1
The historical reference is reached, but a sustained plateau is not confirmed. Hold watering; these pots are separate from the Water list.
#4P22Kiwi aeoniumDry reference reached — waiting for plateau−3.22g/day
Hold watering: the dry reference has been reached, but plateau is not yet supported. The 12:47 a.m. September 19 reading completes today’s planned sample. Do not repeat it today; follow up September 20. Actual mix readiness and active versus resting rosettes still govern any later care decision.

Weigh once today to complete the intermediate sample already planned for September 18–19. The last reading is September 15, before the drainage-opening modification.

The owner-confirmed position exchange puts A3 at R4C6; retain P03 and its current pot setup.

A second look at the evidence
🤖 AI recommendation
A separate assessment of this report's data. Any difference from the main list is explained below.
💧 I would add no watering or fertilizer today. No current pot confirms a plateau, and I do not see evidence for an earlier watering exception. #6 has already been watered and fed; its 561.5 g post-water reading starts a new cycle.
⚖️ I would start with G2, A1, A2, H1 and H2, then finish A3, B1, C1, C2, C3, D2, E3, F1 and F3. These are the remaining useful follow-ups, not extra pots added to fill a quota. G2 is overdue, and A3/F1 also need observation after their position exchange.
⏳ I would hold #4 despite its 10 g reference undershoot: its multi-day tail still loses 6.13 g/day and the plateau is not supported. I would wait until September 20 for its next weight; the overnight reading already fulfills today’s request.
👀 I would check #3’s upper mix beneath the stones rather than repeat its completed leaf-posture check. For G3 I would keep the leaf-cycle hold: Dry mix, older-pair wrinkling and a growing new pair are now owner observations; inner-pair firmness is the remaining specific check before changing care.
⏸️ I would leave H3 alone today because its new owner Check records Slightly moist and resolves the requested strand inspection. I would weigh it September 20, also prioritizing E1 then because its fresh reading is only 14 g above reference. Neither the small margin nor an older photograph establishes physical dryness.
