Release Notes
See what is new, improved, and fixed in GroBase.
GroBase 2.0 introduces a redesigned experience focused on making grow tracking cleaner, faster, and easier to use while still providing advanced tools for growers who want them.
New Features
GroBase has been redesigned with a cleaner, more consistent interface across dashboards, cycles, plants, days, templates, the Seed Vault, GroHub, release notes, and other areas of the platform. The updated design improves navigation, readability, mobile usability, and access to common actions.
Choose how much detail you want to see throughout GroBase. Simple View keeps everyday grow tracking focused and approachable, while Advanced View provides access to additional analytics, integrations, templates, and detailed tracking tools.
Record common grow activities without completing the full Day form. Quickly log notes, watering, environmental readings, training, plant notes, light notes, and photos. GroBase automatically finds or creates the correct Day based on the selected cycle, date, and growth stage.
Create reusable stage-by-stage grow plans with target environmental and lighting values. Use the Grow Plan Analyzer to compare your targets against actual cycle averages and identify opportunities to improve future grows.
Enhancements
Day fields are now optional, allowing you to record only the information that matters for a specific day without entering placeholder environmental or watering values.
Cycle pages now provide clearer summaries, streamlined quick actions, improved plant and equipment sections, and better organization for daily tracking, photos, tasks, and stage information.
Dashboard widgets and summaries have been refreshed for better readability, consistency, and mobile behavior.
Layouts, action buttons, cards, forms, tables, navigation, and collapsible sections have been refined to work more comfortably on smaller screens.
Updated cards, page headers, toolbars, badges, filters, empty states, accordions, modals, and action controls across GroBase.
Additional query, loading, and interface optimizations have been made throughout the platform.
