Calculation and observed tool result

Before

Start 2026-11-01 + 7 days = 2026-11-08. Follow product instructions and actual condition.

Recorded quantity: 1 items.

After

Start 2026-11-01 + 7 days = 2026-11-08. Follow product instructions and actual condition.

Recorded quantity: 1 items.

What the result means

The inspection date stays November 8 while location context changes.

Limits of this example

The tool does not measure light or approve the new location.

A mistake to avoid

A date change is not required merely because the pot moved.
