General Gardening » Question accuracy
Richard, Did you leave your EasyBloom out for at least 24 hours? If you take it in earlier, we'll extrapolate from the data recorded, but this can skew your result slightly. For best results, leave out for a whole day to get a complete "Plants Eye View". Let me know how your next reading goes- Edith
General Gardening » Low "E" windows
Low "E" windows work by blocking sunlight. This keeps your home cooler in warm climates. Unfortunately, sunlight that your plants need is blocked, also. The EasyBloom will measure the amount of sunlight a plant sees. I hope this helps you. Edith
Mary- If you're looking at recommended plants from within a reading, you'll ONLY see plants that are within your zones. When you're browsing the Plant Library, you see all plants. This is a great feature idea, and thanks for suggesting it. Edith

Angelique- We need a full 24 hours of data to get a complete "Plants View". However, it doesn't matter when you start it. If you leave it out for more than 3 days, you'll get a reminder to plug it into your computer.

Becky- Can you check to make sure your Companion Software is running? It's a little "bloom" in your system tray. Edith
Feature Ideas » ability to move the sun sensor away from the body of the easy bloom
You are correct, the top of the sensor measures sunlight. I've heard reports of users attaching the top of the sensor to a branch to get a sunlight reading.
Feature Ideas » PH testing
Christopher, I laughed out loud at your pink flowers. Have you amended your soil since then? How often do you test now?
HI Christopher- How happy are you with the results from Ferry? How many plants are you monitoring? Also, how often do you amend your soil for pH? Do you NEED to know it, or is mainly that you like knowing it? Thanks for the thanks to Robby--we work at PlantSense :)
