Editorial Policy

Every care guide on GrowBook is compiled from publicly available horticultural references. We consult multiple sources — including botanical gardens, university extension services, and peer-reviewed publications — to ensure accuracy and completeness.

All content goes through a multi-step review process: source collection, factual verification, readability editing, and technical review. We prioritize conditional, evidence-based language over absolute claims.

We cite our reference sources at the bottom of every content page. Source organizations are listed for transparency only and do not imply endorsement, partnership, or affiliation.

Plant science evolves, and so does our content. We regularly review and update our guides to reflect the latest available information. Each page displays its last review date.

If you find an error in our content, please let us know through our contact page. We investigate all reported issues and publish corrections promptly.

We use careful, conditional language — phrases like 'typically,' 'in most cases,' and 'depending on conditions' — because plant care is not one-size-fits-all. We distinguish between common experience and verified facts.
