agrē supports Universal Crop Stages, so the list of Crop Stages can be different for different crops - or different groups of crops (wheat and winter wheat may have the same crop stages).

Digital cameras can take amazing photos, but you probably don’t need the entire 8 (or 12 or 60) megapixels in the Image Gallery to convey an infestation of Canada Thistle. To reduce upload times, the default size for field scout images is “Small”, but you can increase the size if you find the quality of the printed image lacking. Changing the default affects new images on upload - images you've already added to field scouts won't be resized.
Select the Image Size: Small, Medium, or Large
