A record that grows with you
The current app introduces grow journals with notes, photos and plant metrics. Richer timelines, media context and connected environmental history remain part of the Trellis development direction.
Rooted in the grow. Built by Cadela.
Trellis by Canopy
Your plants, your notes, your next grow. Cadela Grow is running today. Trellis by Canopy is the broader direction we’re developing around grow records, soil tools and a more connected grow room.

Trellis by Canopy / The software
Running app · Development ongoing
Cadela Grow is online. Its public welcome screen introduces journals, photos, a grow feed and soil calculations. Trellis by Canopy is the wider direction for bringing that work and future connected capabilities together.
The current app introduces grow journals with notes, photos and plant metrics. Richer timelines, media context and connected environmental history remain part of the Trellis development direction.
Soil recipe scaling is presented in the current app. The wider tools roadmap brings recipes and practical measurements into context, with inventory and shopping lists among the development goals.
A grow feed and sharing are introduced in the current app. Recipe discovery and broader community knowledge remain areas to develop as the Trellis experience takes shape.
The app opens to a welcome screen with sign-in and account creation. Feature descriptions reflect that public introduction; availability behind sign-in is not confirmed here. Roadmap items remain development goals.
Canopy / The connected environment
Canopy is the connected hardware and automation direction: sensors, environmental telemetry and history, controllers, and rules for the grow room.
The intended bridge into Trellis would put environmental changes alongside plant notes and photos—so growers can review the room and the grow together.
Automation is intended to be deterministic, bounded and user-controlled. AI may help interpret information and suggest actions; it is an advisory layer, not autonomous hardware control.
How the pieces are intended to connect
Sensors · Environmental readings · History
Controllers · Bounded automation rules · Hardware integrations
Plant timelines · Context · Review and understanding
Planned intelligence / Local-first, not local-only
Trellis is being designed for optional, provider-flexible AI. Local and self-hosted models would support everyday work, with external APIs available for selected tasks that benefit from stronger capabilities. This planned layer is separate from the running grow app.
Models running on suitable user hardware, for routine, privacy-sensitive or latency-sensitive assistance. Capability depends on the device and model.
Intended for everyday, lower-cost tasks.Models on privately operated infrastructure, with room for workloads beyond a single device. Self-hosted processing may happen on a server, away from your device.
A separate deployment path from local execution.Selected, user-approved tasks could use frontier models for long grow histories, stronger image understanding, or synthesis across recipes, logs and future sensor history.
Provider-flexible. No single provider required.The intended design makes cloud AI optional and requires approval of the data shared for a task. Logs and images should not be sent to external AI automatically. These consent controls are planned, not released. Any future opt-in training use would require a separate choice from inference.
AI is planned to support review and understanding, not guarantee cultivation diagnoses. Local-first does not mean the whole app is offline: community features need networked services. External processing would depend on the selected provider’s terms.
The development direction
A direction of travel, with each layer to be proven before it is presented as available. No release dates or completed milestones are implied.
Build on the running app’s journal and soil-tool direction. Richer context, inventory and shopping lists remain development goals.
Extend the app’s introduced grow-feed direction with recipe discovery and broader community knowledge. Future scope and availability will be confirmed as work progresses.
Optional local, self-hosted and external API assistance for grow history review, image interpretation and knowledge synthesis.
Sensors, environmental history, controllers and user-defined automation, with a bridge into Trellis.
Further possibilities include product links, local vendors and community listings. These remain exploratory.
Behind the work
Cadela is the broader home for practical apps, tools, games and connected systems. Trellis by Canopy is the grow-focused work taking shape within it: software grounded in the day-to-day, with a longer view of what a connected environment can offer.
