Can you set the default value of a lookup field based on the previous record

Can you set the default value of a lookup field based on the previous record

Hi. Trying to build a stock countIng app using Zoho. 

I have a lookup field for all the categories of plants we grow and that then filters all the varieties in another lookup field based on what was selected. Works great. 

However for speed I would love that if I choose shrub in the previous record it auto inputs that in the current record but allows me to edit if necessary. My reasoning for this is most of time we keep different category of plants separate so lots in a row would all be the same so it would be a great time saver rather than having to select shrub for each input.
