 ## Watering
 
 * In the game: choose **Water**.
+* On IRC (community bot): in a channel the bot is in (or via DM), use:
+  * `!water <user>` — record a visit/watering for `~<user>`.
+  * `!plant <user>` — show the current status summary.
+  * The bot is rate-limited to prevent spam and will **tell you if a plant appears dead** (watering won’t revive it).
