What is the Grow Style Grove?

The Grow Style Grove is a six-axis hexagonal chart that summarises how you garden. Axes include:

  • Consistency — how regularly you capture and log care events
  • Precision — how many metric-driven decisions you make vs gut feel
  • Scale — how many plants you monitor
  • Variety — range of species
  • Tech — use of edge hardware, automation, timelapse
  • Community — sharing and collaborating with other growers

Your scores are derived from your actual usage data — captures per week, number of plants, plan complexity, timelapse sessions, and shared posts.

Sharing your Grove

From the Grove view, tap Share poster. This generates a branded image with your Grove, your scores, and your top plant. You can:

  • Download it as a PNG
  • Share directly to social media
  • Send the link app.sproutcast.io/share/grow-style?t=... — recipients see your Grove without needing an account

The shareable link is read-only and contains no personally identifiable information beyond the scores you choose to include.

Why it exists

Grow style profiling came from growers in the community asking "Am I using Sproutcast the right way?" There is no right way — but the Grove makes it easy to see your own patterns and, eventually, find other growers with a similar style.
