A garden is rarely a solo project. From today, you can invite anyone in your household to join your MyPlot account and share the same plantings, logs, harvests, and reminders — no separate accounts, no syncing, no sending photos back and forth.
The invite flow is designed to be as low-friction as possible. You generate an 8-character code from Settings → Household, share it however you like — text, email, even written on a sticky note — and your household member enters it when they sign up or from their existing account. There's no email confirmation loop or separate invitation link to expire.
Once someone joins your household they see the same garden as you. Plantings, beds, harvests, reminders — it's all shared. If your partner waters the tomatoes and logs it, you'll see it when you check the timeline later. If you set a reminder to feed the citrus, they'll see it too. The garden record becomes a shared document rather than something only one person maintains.
Roles are straightforward. The account owner can remove members and manage the household. Members can log events, add reminders, record harvests, and do everything else in the garden — they just can't remove other members or delete the account. There's no complicated permission matrix to configure; households are small, and the roles reflect that.

Every log entry shows who made it. If you come out to the garden in the morning and the tomatoes look like they've been watered overnight, the timeline will tell you your partner watered them yesterday afternoon and left a note. That visibility removes a lot of the small miscommunications that happen when two people tend the same space.
- One person keeps all the records
- "Did you water the beans?" uncertainty
- Harvest logs only reflect one harvester
- Reminders only go to one phone
- Everyone logs, one shared record
- Timeline shows who did what and when
- All harvests counted together
- Reminders visible to the whole household
Household sharing is available to all MyPlot accounts now — up to six members per household. Head to Settings → Household to set it up. If you're already sharing a garden the old-fashioned way, this is the digital version of that.
