Grow Journals are community-submitted pages documenting the journey of growing plants - cannabis, tomatoes, herbs, flowers, or anything else. Share your progress, photos, successes, and lessons learned.

Start Your Own Journal

Ready to document your grow? Enter a name for your journal:

You’ll need a GitHub account. After clicking:

  1. Rename my-journal-name to something descriptive (use dashes, like balcony-tomatoes-2026)
  2. Fill in your details and write your journal
  3. Submit a pull request

Adding Photos

Each journal is a folder, so you can upload images right alongside your journal:

journals/
  my-journal-name/
    index.md        ← your journal
    seedling.jpg    ← your photos
    harvest.jpg

Then reference images simply:

![My seedling](seedling.jpg)

Or, you can link to image files from other sites like so:

![Image File](https://i.imgur.com/RKpt0g3.jpeg)

Or, you can drag and drop into the markdown editor. You will see a link in an <img> tag. That is github saving the photo to their own CDN. This is a good option as well.

Tips

  • Dates - Include dates with updates so readers can follow the timeline
  • Be yourself - No strict format, write however works for you
  • Link to articles - Reference wiki pages like pests or strain info
    • You will need to go “back” to articles, like this: [pests](../articles/pests)
  • Update as you go - Edit your journal to add new progress
