That's a bizarrely framed title, but I'm unsure how to surmise..
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I run a garden. We have 3 different nutrition programs, that use a different mix of ingredients, and share some ingredients. The amount to make depends on how many m2 are to be treated (or how many L of water are used to drench seedlings).
These programs are:
- Foliar 1 (mixed for m2)
- Foliar 2 (mixed for m2)
- Transplant Drench (mixed to vol of water used for seedling drench).
I need to keep records for our organics certification on what inputs are used, and when and where they are used.
So I want the user to be able to select "Foliar 1," input how many m2 of garden they are treating (or how many L of water they are using to drench seedlings). I then want Airtable to "generate" the quantities of each input they need, without needing to do any potentially confusing math.
It can store that as a record against the date, so I can archive that.
I currently have an "inputs" table, which has the name and rate/m2 or rate/10L of water (2 different fields).
But I am getting lost on using this info to create a recipe. Does anyone have any guidance to get me out of the creative rut?
