Overview

Community Garden is an app that tracks Gardens, Plots, and Plants.

• Gardens have a name and an 'organic' boolean column

  • Ex: name: "Turing Community Garden", organic: true

• Plots have a size and a direction

  • Ex: size: "Large", direction: "East"

• Plants have a name, description, and days to harvest.

  • Ex: name: "Purple Beauty Sweet Bell Pepper", description: "Prefers rich, well draining soil.", days_to_harvest: 90

• Gardens have many plots

• Plots belong to a Garden

• Plants can be in many Plots

• Plots have many Plants

• When plants are added to a plot, users can indicate how many seedlings are being added.

Some of the initial migrations and model set up has been done for you.
