# How do I close and start a new grow?

To close a grow or start a new one, follow these steps:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Click on your grow in the dashboard.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Tap the cog icon in the top right corner.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Select Grow Settings.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Choose from three options:

* **Close grow** – Archives your current grow for future reference.
* **Close & start a new grow** – Archives your current grow and creates a new one with the same settings.
* **Delete grow** – Permanently removes the grow from your records
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}

This makes it easy to manage your grow cycles and keep track of past data for future improvements.
