By Phase By Day Calendar
Launch
You will launch your houseplant investigation by closely examining stressed plants, learning the core signs of plant health, and testing a short starter care comparison. By the end of the phase, you will choose an initial care question, make an evidence-based prediction, and set up the notebook tools you will use to track your plant over time.

Routine Data Collection
You will carry out the first cycle of your plant-care investigation by following your approved routine, collecting reliable evidence, and keeping your notebook traceable enough for another person to follow. You will document growth, soil moisture, leaf condition, light placement, and early pest or stress signs, then use peer and expert feedback to tighten your methods before the midpoint analysis phase.
