Every seed you earn, every plant that grows, every streak you build begins with completing a task. Tasks are the heartbeat of BloomDay.

02 — Seeds & Economy
The "currency" of your garden
Seeds are earned through consistent work and spent on plants and decor. They are designed to feel valuable, not abundant.

Seeds do not expire. They accumulate across days. Some rare Eden-tier plants cost 300-400 seeds, requiring several days of consistent work to afford. That tension is intentional.
03 — Plants

Journal
Plant Journal
Write daily reflections with prompts. Each entry is timestamped and stored locally. Free users can save up to 3 entries; premium users get unlimited.
Time Capsule
Letters to Future You
Choose a plant, write a letter to your future self. The capsule stays sealed while the plant grows. When it fully blooms, the capsule opens automatically.
The capsule creates a tangible link between your present effort and a future reward that only patience can unlock. It cannot be bought, skipped, or rushed.
11 — Weekly Report
Seven days, "clearly seen"
Every week BloomDay generates a visual report of your progress. The mood headline changes based on your actual completion rate.

12 — Tips
Getting the most from "your garden"
Practical advice to help you build habits and grow your garden sustainably.
Water every day
Growth comes only from watering. Open the app, water your plant, and let the streak build naturally.
Use Focus Mode for deep work
Every completed focus session earns +3 seeds. Use it for your hardest tasks of the day.
Save for rare plants
Forest and Eden tier plants cost 200-400 seeds. Saving for them should feel earned, not effortless.
Guard your streak
A streak only requires one task per day. On slow days, complete your smallest task. That still counts.
Write a time capsule early
Seal a letter to a slow-growing plant. By the time it blooms, you will have forgotten what you wrote.
Set up recurring tasks
Your daily habits should be recurring tasks. Set them once, and they reappear automatically every day or week.
Every reward should be a consequence of real work, not a shortcut around it. Growth is quiet. It happens one task, one day, one leaf at a time.
