Some Quick Suggestions
by evermorian,
Glad to see this up and running. Some quick suggestions from my initial pass at adding crops: After I add a crop, there should be a button to add another on the confirmation page. I rarely plant one thing. When I type in the full name of a crop (e.g., "cinnamon basil") I get an error about...
