Growing your garden…

Free with your Edaphia account

Meet Master Gardener

An AI gardening assistant that knows your garden.

Master Gardener combines AI with the information you keep in Edaphia—your plants, varieties, gardens, beds, sunlight, soil, planting dates, growing conditions, and Edaphia's researched crop data.

Instead of asking a generic gardening chatbot, “Why are my tomato leaves turning yellow?”, Master Gardener can understand which tomatoes you're growing, where they're planted, and the conditions they're growing in.

Your garden, in the conversation

Ask about your actual garden

Master Gardener can use your Edaphia garden information to answer questions about the crops and varieties you're actually growing.

“How is my Cherokee Purple doing?”

When garden context is available, it can understand the relevant planting, bed, sun, soil, and timing instead of requiring you to repeat everything.

From your phone or photo library

Diagnose problems with a photo

Take a photo directly from your phone or upload an existing image. Ask about leaf spots, discoloration, pest damage, wilting, possible nutrient symptoms, insects, unknown plants, or weeds.

Master Gardener describes what it can see, possible causes, what would help confirm them, and practical next steps. A photo alone may not establish a definitive diagnosis.

Specific to each growing area

Know what works in each bed

Ask “What can I plant in this bed?” or “Will carrots work here?” Master Gardener can consider recorded sunlight, soil, garden location, growing zone, season, and active plantings.

When details are missing, it can explain what Edaphia knows and what still needs checking.

Structured crop knowledge

Understands your crops and varieties

Master Gardener can work with Edaphia's crop and variety records, including available maturity ranges, seasonal behavior, sunlight requirements, adaptation information, and reviewed recommendation profiles.

Clearer reasoning

Explains why

Use Why this? to understand the Edaphia information behind an answer. Sources shows stored research references when available. Master Gardener distinguishes your recorded information, researched data, inferences, and general guidance; some records have no stored source or only a profile-level source.

From answer to next step

Turn advice into garden actions

Master Gardener can suggest Garden Tasks, Garden Journal entries, Shopping List items, and Supply List items.

Nothing is added until you review and approve it. You can check or edit a suggestion before it becomes part of your garden records.
