How to use the Plant Care QR Generator
How this QR code works
This code carries the care summary two ways. With a care page URL, scanning opens the full guide. Without one, the code stores the summary itself as plain text — plant, light, water, and notes — so it works with no website at all. Nurseries can print one code per species and reuse it across every plant of that kind.
Writing care instructions that get followed
Keep the tag to the two decisions a buyer makes every week: where the plant sits and when it gets watered. One clear line for light and one for water beats a paragraph of botany. Put the detail on the linked page, and keep the tag short enough to read at arm’s length in a shop.
Testing before you print
Print the tag at its real size, push it into a pot, and scan it at the distance a shopper stands from the shelf. Tags get wet, so laminate paper or print on weather-resistant stock, and check the scan again after watering — a smudged code helps nobody.
