Short video about the update

Desktop Just Got an Upgrade!

We’ve got some exciting news for our GrowDiaries family—another round of updates is here, and it’s all thanks to you! Your feedback continues to shape the way we grow, and this time, we’ve focused on improving your desktop experience.

Big, Bold & Colorful Icons Are Back!



You asked, and we listened. One of the most requested changes was bringing back the big, colorful parameter icons. Say goodbye to the minimalist black icons and hello again to the bright, familiar visuals for plant height, light cycle, and more. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference, and we’re happy to bring a little more color back to your diaries.

Photo Viewing, Now Better Than Ever



We’ve also made some exciting changes to how you view plant photos in your diaries. There is no need to click “show more photos” anymore. Now, you’ll see all your weekly photos right away. No extra steps, just a clear, complete view of your grow journey at a glance.

 



And that’s not all! We’ve changed the way you scroll through your photos. Instead of scrolling vertically, you’ll now scroll horizontally in a seamless flow for a smoother, more natural experience, making it much easier to view all the pictures and videos from your favorite diaries.

Total Control Over Your Videos

Last but not least, we've fixed the video playback issues! You can now click on the video to enter full-screen mode, allowing you to mute, pause, rewind, or fast-forward whenever you like.

Make sure to leave your suggestions and feedback in the comment section below, and thank you for helping us grow into the world’s most awesome grower community, one comment at a time.

Can we get a manual override to be able to set our "popular diaries" rather than them being auto-selected via the amount of likes.
GrowDiaries
GrowDiaries commented4mo ago
@Dabking, there is a solution for this via Feed (growdiaries.com/feed) where you can basically choose what you want to see (Diaries, growers, companies). It's filled with those you follow. Does this work for you?

@GrowDiaries, that link doesn't work and in the feed I see no settings to change anything. Just says you can follow growers.

@popcornsutton, This is kind of strange. The view switches back without you doing anything? Which browser do you use?
Shinsimilla
Shinsimilla commented4mo ago
@popcornsutton, don't complain too loudly or they will silence you. Reminds me of a few "great" leaders. GD, you can delete this too, but only because you know it's true.

It would be great an application for mobile devices (IOS and Android) please! It would be super convenient! Maybe with an AI integration, so that the AI can access all personal diaries and based on the comments of the captions etc... it can give us a hand for the problem we request or something else

@Spiritual_Herb, thanks for the idea. Working on it👌

@GrowDiaries, Of course, the AI — we could call it something like GrowsAI — should be able to access all the parameters from the diary. Things like the type of pot, the different growth stages, the fertilizers used, the soil, the growing techniques… basically everything a user can log on GrowDiaries. The idea is to train this AI using only trustworthy sources: books, PDFs, and scientific material focused on cannabis, both from a medical and cultivation perspective. This way, the grower gets a smart, truly advanced assistant that can provide real support for any kind of grow. Some cool features that could make a difference: One is predictive yield analysis. Based on the user’s data, the AI could estimate the final yield and warn them if something starts to go off track. Another is an evolutionary timelapse. Imagine a tool that automatically builds a timelapse from daily pictures (or a linked cam) and uses computer vision to track plant health, growth speed, signs of stress, and sends timely notifications. It could also give personalized nutrient mix suggestions. Depending on the growth stage, substrate, and other inputs, the AI could calculate a tailored combination of fertilizers and microelements to optimize results.

I really would like to be able to view who has liked my posts. I can see I might have like one or two likes on a post but I don’t even know who did that.

@BernMars, look at notifications at the top see bell. Or on the menu scroll to your avatar. The notifications are there.

Bug for desktop browser: If window is not wide enough, there are no scroll bars for the numerous links to each week at top.

Hello @GrowDiaries, where is the View Counter? My new published Report, (Ice Cream Haze), does not have this Counter?
GrowDiaries
GrowDiaries commented3mo ago
@birdmountain, hey, thanks for the question. We've been receiving lots of feedback about the stats on the platform. So our developers are now working on fixing it. Count view is one of them. Should be up soon.

Vaak als ik iets post dan zie ik een andere naam staan met mijn post. Vaak doe ik video of fotos uploaden en crasht mijn dagboek

@Xpie77, Thanks a lot for your message and for reporting this! We’re aware of the issue and have already passed it on to our development team — it’s currently being worked on. Hopefully, it’ll be fixed very soon. Thanks again for your patience and for being part of our community! 🌱 — GrowDiaries Team

well the different categories for plants still seems to be a random collection of diaries. There's outside plants under the Inside category and a few week old plants under Harvested catagory
GrowDiaries
GrowDiaries commented4mo ago
@Ratle, Thanks for the info. Here it mostly depends on the growers. When you start a diary you mark indoor/outdoor, as we sure you know. The same is happening with harvested diaries. Some growers only post 4 weeks and then harvest. Or sometimes (from what we've seen) something goes wrong with a plant and in order to finish the diary grower jumps to the harvest week. In case you refer to something else - feel free to give us links to the diaries either here or through the contact form growdiaries.com/contact Thanks in advance and have a great day!
