Tree care guide
Planting is the start. Care is the mission.
A fast guide for planting correctly, keeping trees alive, and earning TreeCoins with trustworthy proof.
TreeCoin is an in-app reward point during MVP and is not a tradable financial asset.
Do not plant on protected or unsafe public land.
Show the sapling and the surroundings in proof photos.
Plant in the right place
Avoid protected land, roadsides, utilities, and cramped spaces where survival is unlikely.
Get permission first
Plant only where you have clear permission from the owner, school, society, or local body.
Watering basics
Water deeply after planting, then keep a steady care rhythm through heat and dry weeks.
First 90 days care
Check mulch, soil moisture, lean, leaf health, and signs of damage every week.
Protect from damage
Use safe guards where needed and keep the base clear from animals, foot traffic, and trash.
Avoid invasive species
Do not plant species that harm local biodiversity or spread aggressively.
Proof beats promises
Take clear photos and updates so the tree's survival story can be verified.
90-day care path
Turn a planting moment into survival proof.
The reward loop teaches users what to do next, what to avoid, and what evidence makes review trustworthy.
Key message
Do not plant randomly in protected or public land.
Get permission, choose suitable species, and keep proof clear enough for a human reviewer to trust.

Care milestone
Plant with permission
Choose a legal, safe spot with enough room for roots, canopy, and future care.
Confirm permission before digging
Pick a native or locally suitable species
Photograph the location before and after planting
Proof tip: Capture the sapling, surrounding context, and planting date in one clear proof set.
Days 1-7
Care milestone
Stabilize the sapling
The first week is about water, shade balance, and making sure the sapling is not disturbed.
Water deeply, not just on the surface
Keep the base clear of plastic and trash
Check that the sapling stands upright
Proof tip: A short check-in photo should show soil moisture and the full sapling.
Days 8-30
Care milestone
Build the care rhythm
A regular care habit matters more than a dramatic one-time planting moment.
Water based on weather and soil dryness
Add mulch without covering the stem
Protect from animals, foot traffic, and accidental damage
Proof tip: Your 30-day proof should show healthy leaves and the same location context.
Days 31-90
Care milestone
Prove survival
Survival proof should show that the tree is adapting and still being cared for.
Look for new leaves or stable growth
Remove weeds competing around the base
Report damage early instead of hiding it
Proof tip: The 90-day update should make it easy for an admin to compare against older proof.

Care milestone
Keep protecting it
Long-term care turns a sapling into verified impact and unlocks stronger rewards.
Schedule seasonal watering checks
Refresh guards or support only when needed
Keep documenting survival milestones
Proof tip: Long-term proof should show tree health, surroundings, and continued access for care.
