Here are some of the new features:
- Ive added all the Bonsai Genie programs into Ideas Genie.
These are to allow you to work with the delights you sow or grow in Pots and Containers - The program Specimens-GA629 has been reworked extensively to allow users to work with Pots and Containers.
- Extended ability - you can record the fill details of individual pots or containers (as before) but now you can have multiple pots/containers of the same type.
e.g you have/buy 10 trays for sowing a variety of seed, you have/buy 100 small pots for potting up a variety of seedlings, or 50 medium size pots to pot them on. - Record photos of your beautiful display of plants in your containers.
- Record events in the growing process - when seed are sown, when they are potted up, potted on, planted in the garden.
- When Tasks heve been created for specimens e.g. Sow Seed, Pot on, Plant Out, the latest updates have been programmed to integrate events recorded in Specimens-GA629 with those Tasks and record them as Complete.
- Record the plants you select to fill, empty (e.g. when expired at end of summer) and then refill your pots and containers next year, keeping a history of the previous fill.
- Since history of each fill is recorded, you can look back on your containers from previous years - what plants you put in them with as many photos as you wish.
e.g. Take a photo after planting your specimens in containers. You can lasso the images identifying the plants used and the planting arrangement - easier to see when just planted. - Record details of your pots and containers collection:
quantity (per container), size, material, origin etc and photos of each pot/container
As you know, pots for Bonsai specimens can be expensive.
