New Substrates Section:

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news with our GrowDiaries community! Our latest update is here, and it’s packed with features we know you’ll love. We’ve added a brand-new "Substrates" section to the Equipments tab, where you can check out the best cannabis substrate brands out there. 

 

 

Pick a brand you like, learn more about its history, explore their full range of products, and click through to product pages loaded with diaries, photos, and honest reviews from growers just like you. It’s everything you need to find the perfect substrate for your plants.

 

 

And that’s not all—we’ve also upgraded the diary experience. Now, when you start a new diary, you can add substrate to your setup:

 

 

Letting your followers know your exact substrate mix including the exact brand, type, and split of substrates you’re using: 

 

 

Sharing your substrate mix is an easy way to give your followers a detailed peek into your growing process. We’d love to get your feedback in the comments! Let us know what you think of the new Substrates section and which brands you’d like to see added!

Have you fixed the issues with the CPU and RAM? This site alone crashes the browser and eats up mobile phone battery and system resources. Why add more features when the foundation is still broken?? Others also can't post diary weeks as it errors out... like what is going on?

dark mode still has black headers on this portion of the site FoxFarm/RedRock substrates, generic options for clay/perlite/etc. would be nice

@ATLien415, Thanks a lot for pointing out! We rarely use the dark mode! Already passed to the developers team! Regarding the substrate companies - we'll add them. Generic options - we will look into this! Have a great day!
