Garden Roots Editorial Standards

Garden Roots aims to make gardening information practical, understandable, and useful in a real garden. Content should help gardeners understand what to do and why, while recognizing that growing conditions vary by location, weather, season, and garden.

Practical plant guidance

Plant information is organized around useful growing details such as planting, light, water, care, harvest, and seasonal context. Guidance should not pretend that one recommendation fits every garden.

Transparent AI guidance

Sage is an AI garden companion. AI-generated guidance should not present uncertainty as certainty. Photo-based plant-health guidance is treated as guidance rather than a confirmed diagnosis, and garden changes prepared by Sage require review before saving.

Food preservation safety

Preservation guidance should favor tested food-safety practices. Garden Roots should not invent shelf-stable canning processing times or present an unverified method as tested canning guidance.
