If this year's harvest had a main character, it was tomatoes. Here's how it went, roughly day by day.

While far from the same open data goals, to mirror the previous functionality there are a few [external links](https://ww…

Hi I am a new Farmbot user. Web site is farm.bot
In their open source project they now have 'curves' that record things such as growing height, spread and watering requirements over the lifecycle of the plant. This is a very cool feature but there are no premade curves to download and use…

I managed to grow some truly giant leeks this year.
Unfortunately I also had a lot of spring onion, so started to reach a limit for what could be done.
