Example result

What the AI returned with this prompt and some sample answers.

# Channel series · balcony vegetable garden · 5 h per week · 1 video weekly

SUMMARY AND LIMITS
Fictional channel 'Green Balcony': growing in pots for flat dwellers with
no experience. One person, a phone and a tripod, talking to camera. Five
hours a week fits one video per week and two formats, no more.

PROPOSED SERIES
1. 'One pot, one month' · 6–8 min · medium effort
   Fixed promise: you follow one crop from sowing to harvest.
   Fits because the audience wants the whole process, mistakes included.
2. 'Plant rescue' · 4–5 min · low effort
   Fixed promise: one visible problem, its likely cause and what to try.

REPEATABLE STRUCTURE (series 1)
- Hook: today's pot next to the same pot 30 days ago.
- Body: what I did, what went wrong, what I would change.
- Close: what gets sown in the next episode.
Fixed: same balcony shot and same ruler for measuring.
Changes: the crop. Examples: radishes, cut-and-come-again lettuce, basil.

LIGHT CALENDAR (4 weeks)
- W1: One pot, one month · radishes (using clips you already have).
- W2: Plant rescue · yellow leaves.
