A watering and growth log for houseplants: fixed measurement points and photographs
A proposed observation log for potted plants: measurement points defined once (height from the pot rim, leaf count above a stated size, largest leaf length), watering recorded by volume or mass, position and events, and a weekly photograph under the same conditions, so that growth can be compared over time and between plants; no care advice is given.
