Advanced Automated Crop Steering System

Home Assistant Python Automation License Status Warning

DEVELOPMENT STATUS WARNING

This system is heavily under development and should be considered experimental.

  • Vibe coded - Built based on irrigation theory but not extensively tested in real growing conditions
  • Experimental features - Complex automation logic that may need tuning for your specific setup
  • Use at your own risk - Monitor your plants closely and have backup irrigation methods ready
  • Heavy development - Code and functionality subject to significant changes
  • Not production ready - Expect bugs, issues, and the need for manual intervention

Recent Improvements (v2.3.0):

  • NEW: Full GUI Configuration - No command line needed! Configure everything through Home Assistant UI
  • Fixed async/await issues - No more runtime warnings about unawaited coroutines
  • Fixed sensor fusion - VWC and EC values no longer mixed (was causing incorrect readings)
  • Implemented clean state machine - Phase transitions now properly tracked and validated
  • Improved reliability - Thread-safe operation with proper error handling
  • Fixed P3 phase logic - Now correctly persists through entire lights-off period
  • Removed hardcoded Zone 3 emergency irrigation - Uses proper phase-based logic

Recommendation: Start with manual overrides enabled and gradually trust the automation as you validate it works with your specific hardware and plants.

What This System Does

Transform your Home Assistant into a professional-grade crop steering platform that automatically manages precision irrigation using advanced rule-based logic and sensor-driven automation. This system replaces manual irrigation guesswork with intelligent threshold-based decisions optimized for plant health and maximum yields.

The Logic Behind Automated Crop Steering

Traditional Problem: Manual irrigation timing leads to:

  • Over/under-watering from guesswork
  • Inconsistent plant stress patterns
  • Poor nutrient timing
  • Wasted water and nutrients
  • Suboptimal yields

Automated Solution: Our system uses:

  • Statistical sensor validation to get accurate substrate moisture readings
  • Rule-based logic to determine optimal irrigation timing based on thresholds
  • Real-time dryback detection using peak detection algorithms
  • Intelligent crop profiles with strain-specific parameters
  • Professional monitoring to track efficiency and performance

The Result: Consistent irrigation timing, reduced water waste, and precision automation that maintains optimal growing conditions.

How It Works

  1. Sensors collect data - VWC and EC sensors monitor substrate conditions
  2. System analyzes patterns - Statistical algorithms identify dryback patterns and trends
  3. Rule-based decisions execute - System automatically waters based on threshold logic
  4. Performance tracked - System monitors efficiency and maintains detailed logs
  5. You get results - Consistent plants, less work, optimized resource usage

Core Irrigation Logic

4-Phase Rule-Based Cycle

  • P0 (Morning Dryback): Controlled drying phase with configurable target thresholds
  • P1 (Ramp-Up): Progressive rehydration with increasing shot sizes
  • P2 (Maintenance): VWC and EC threshold-based irrigation decisions
  • P3 (Pre-Lights-Off): Final dryback management with emergency-only irrigation

Automatic Phase Transitions (How It Actually Works)

The system automatically moves through phases based on plant conditions, not arbitrary timers:

P3 → P0: Lights On

  • When: Lights turn on (default 12pm noon)
  • Logic: P3 continues through entire lights-off period, then transitions to P0 when lights turn on
  • Simple: P3 overnight → P0 when lights on

P0 → P1: Dryback Complete

  • When: Plants reach target dryness OR safety timeout
  • Logic: Let plants get thirsty, then start rehydrating
  • Entities: number.crop_steering_veg_dryback_target (50% drydown), number.crop_steering_p0_max_wait_time (45min safety)

P1 → P2: Recovery Complete

  • When: Plants recover to healthy moisture level
  • Logic: Slowly add water back until plants are satisfied
  • Entities: number.crop_steering_p1_target_vwc (65% target moisture)

P2 → P3: Pre-Lights-Off Final Watering

  • When: Calculated timing based on dryback rate analysis
  • Logic: Final irrigation before lights-off dark period
  • Simple: Give plants last drink before sleep

In Plain English: Lights on = start getting thirsty → water them slowly until happy → keep them happy all day → final drink before sleep → stay in overnight dryback until lights on again → repeat. Just like caring for plants manually, but perfectly timed by rule-based automation.

Detailed Entity Configuration & Triggers

P3 → P0 Transition (Lights On → Start Drying)

Trigger: Time-based - when lights turn on

  • Light Schedule: Configurable via entities
  • Light Control Entities:
    • datetime.crop_steering_lights_on_time (default: 12:00 PM)
    • datetime.crop_steering_lights_off_time (default: 12:00 AM)
  • Action: Records current VWC as "peak" for dryback calculations

P0 → P1 Transition (Dryback Complete → Start Recovery)

Trigger: Condition-based - dryback target achieved OR safety timeout

Primary Trigger (Dryback %):

  • Entity: number.crop_steering_veg_dryback_target (default: 50%)
  • Logic: Calculate ((peak_vwc - current_vwc) / peak_vwc) * 100
  • Example: Peak 70% → Current 35% = 50% dryback achieved

Safety Trigger (Timeout):

  • Entity: number.crop_steering_p0_max_wait_time (default: 45 minutes)
  • Logic: If dryback takes too long, exit P0 anyway
  • Purpose: Prevents plants from getting too dry

Data Tracking:

  • self.p0_start_time - When P0 phase began
  • self.p0_peak_vwc - VWC level when P0 started

P1 → P2 Transition (Recovery Complete → Maintenance)

Trigger: Condition-based - VWC recovery target achieved

VWC Recovery:

  • Entity: number.crop_steering_p1_target_vwc (default: 65%)
  • Logic: current_vwc >= target_vwc
  • Data Source: sensor.crop_steering_configured_avg_vwc (average across all zones)
  • Example: When average VWC reaches 65%, move to maintenance

P2 → P3 Transition (Maintenance → Bedtime Prep)

Trigger: Calculated timing based on dryback rate analysis

Statistical Analysis Logic:

  • Trend Analysis: Uses advanced_dryback_detection.py to calculate dryback rates from recent VWC data
  • Calculation: predict_target_dryback_time() analyzes current dryback trend using linear regression
  • Timing: Starts P3 at (lights_off - predicted_dryback_time - 30min_buffer)
  • Entities: Uses number.crop_steering_veg_dryback_target as overnight dryback goal

Safety Safeguards:

  • Minimum Window: P3 can't start more than 2 hours before lights off
  • Maximum Window: P3 must start at least 30 minutes before lights off
  • Fallback: If analysis unavailable, uses default timing based on substrate volume

How It Improves:

  • Day 1: Uses default timing (conservative estimate)
  • Day 2+: System calculates actual dryback speed from previous nights
  • Continuous: Each day, timing becomes more accurate based on measured plant response

Key Monitoring Entities

Current Phase Status:

  • sensor.crop_steering_current_phase - Shows active phase (P0/P1/P2/P3)
  • sensor.crop_steering_app_current_phase - AppDaemon phase sensor
  • select.crop_steering_irrigation_phase - Manual phase override

VWC Monitoring:

  • sensor.crop_steering_configured_avg_vwc - Average moisture across all zones
  • sensor.crop_steering_vwc_zone_X - Individual zone moisture levels
  • sensor.crop_steering_dryback_percentage - Current dryback progress

System Status:

  • sensor.crop_steering_system_state - Overall system status
  • sensor.crop_steering_next_irrigation_time - When next irrigation is planned
  • sensor.crop_steering_current_decision - Last AI irrigation decision

Configuration Tips

For Faster Cycles:

  • Lower number.crop_steering_veg_dryback_target (e.g., 30% instead of 50%)
  • Lower number.crop_steering_p1_target_vwc (e.g., 60% instead of 65%)

For Safety:

  • Lower number.crop_steering_p0_max_wait_time (e.g., 30min instead of 45min)
  • Monitor sensor.crop_steering_sensor_health for sensor reliability

For Different Strains:

  • Use number.crop_steering_gen_dryback_target for flowering plants
  • Adjust EC targets: number.crop_steering_ec_target_veg_pX / number.crop_steering_ec_target_gen_pX

Per-Zone Phase & Irrigation System

Each zone operates independently through its own phase cycle:

Independent Zone Phases

  • Each zone tracks its own phase (P0, P1, P2, P3)
  • Zones transition independently based on their individual conditions
  • Mixed phases supported - Zone 1 can be in P2 while Zone 2 is still in P1
  • Shared setpoints - All zones use same thresholds but progress at their own pace
  • P3 persists overnight - Zones remain in P3 through entire lights-off period

Example Scenario:

Zone 1: P2 (65% VWC) - Maintenance, satisfied
Zone 2: P1 (58% VWC) - Still ramping up, needs irrigation  
Zone 3: P3 (42% VWC) - Emergency phase, urgent irrigation
Zone 4: P0 (Dryback)  - No irrigation, letting it dry

Per-Zone Phase Transitions:

  • P0 → P1: Each zone exits dryback when IT reaches target or timeout
  • P1 → P2: Each zone moves to maintenance when IT hits recovery VWC
  • P2 → P3: Zones enter pre-lights-off based on individual ML predictions
  • P3 → P0: Zones transition from P3 to P0 when lights turn ON (not off)

Zone Phase Sensors:

  • sensor.crop_steering_zone_1_phase - Zone 1 current phase
  • sensor.crop_steering_zone_2_phase - Zone 2 current phase
  • sensor.crop_steering_app_current_phase - Summary: "Z1:P2, Z2:P1, Z3:P3, Z4:P0"

Per-Zone Irrigation Logic

All phase irrigation decisions are made PER ZONE, not globally:

P1 Ramp-Up (Per Zone)

Logic: zone_vwc < (p1_target_vwc × 0.9)

  • Entity: number.crop_steering_p1_target_vwc (default: 65%)
  • Trigger: 90% of target (58.5% for default)
  • Shot Size: number.crop_steering_p1_initial_shot_size (default: 2%)
  • Example Decision: "P1 ramp-up zones [1,3]: Z1:55.2%, Z3:56.8% < 58.5%"

P2 Maintenance - Core Crop Steering Logic (Per Zone)

The Heart of Crop Steering: P2 manages both VWC (water stress) and pwEC (salt stress) simultaneously.

Crop Steering Terminology:

  • Field Capacity: Maximum VWC substrate can hold (auto-detected in P1)
  • VWC: Volumetric Water Content - water percentage in substrate
  • pwEC: Pore water electrical conductivity - salt concentration
  • EC Ratio: current_pwEC / target_pwEC (0.8-1.2 = optimal range)

Dual Decision Logic:

  1. VWC Dryback Management:

    • Veg Steering: Allow 10% dryback from field capacity → irrigate back to field capacity
    • Gen Steering: Allow 15% dryback from field capacity → more stress for flowering
    • Example: Field capacity 70% → Veg irrigates at 63%, Gen at 59.5%
  2. EC Salt Management:

    • High EC (>1.2 ratio): Too salty → Larger shots to dilute
    • Low EC (<0.8 ratio): Too dilute → Smaller shots to concentrate
    • Shot Adjustment: base_shot × min(2.0, current_EC / target_EC)

Veg vs Gen EC Targets:

  • Vegetative: P2 target = 3.2 mS/cm (comfortable growth)
  • Generative: P2 target = 6.0 mS/cm (stress for flowering)

Irrigation Triggers: Irrigate if EITHER condition met:

  • VWC below dryback threshold OR EC ratio outside 0.8-1.2 range

Real-World P2 Examples:

Scenario 1 - Vegetative Zone:

  • Field Capacity: 72%, Current VWC: 62%, Current EC: 2.8 mS/cm, Target: 3.2 mS/cm
  • VWC Check: 62% < (72% - 10%) = 62% → At threshold, needs irrigation
  • EC Check: 2.8/3.2 = 0.875 ratio → Slightly low but acceptable
  • Decision: IRRIGATE normal shot to restore field capacity

Scenario 2 - Generative Zone with High Salt:

  • Field Capacity: 68%, Current VWC: 60%, Current EC: 7.5 mS/cm, Target: 6.0 mS/cm
  • VWC Check: 60% > (68% - 15%) = 53% → VWC still good
  • EC Check: 7.5/6.0 = 1.25 ratio → HIGH EC, needs dilution
  • Decision: IRRIGATE larger shot (1.25x normal) to dilute salt buildup

Scenario 3 - No Irrigation Needed:

  • Field Capacity: 70%, Current VWC: 65%, Current EC: 5.8 mS/cm, Target: 6.0 mS/cm
  • VWC Check: 65% > (70% - 15%) = 55% → VWC good
  • EC Check: 5.8/6.0 = 0.97 ratio → EC perfect
  • Decision: NO irrigation, let plants naturally uptake water and concentrate EC

P3 Emergency (Per Zone)

Logic: zone_vwc < p3_emergency_vwc_threshold

  • Entity: number.crop_steering_p3_emergency_vwc_threshold (default: 45%)
  • Shot Size: number.crop_steering_p3_emergency_shot_size (default: 2%)
  • Example Decision: "P3 emergency zones [1,2,4]: Z1:42.3%, Z2:41.8%, Z4:44.1% < 45.0%"

Multi-Zone Execution

How it works:

  1. Zone Analysis: System checks each zone's VWC individually
  2. Zone Selection: Only zones below threshold are selected for irrigation
  3. Simultaneous Irrigation: All selected zones irrigated concurrently
  4. Individual Tracking: Each zone's irrigation is logged separately for ML training

Benefits:

  • No waste - Only thirsty zones get water
  • Individual care - Each zone gets exactly what it needs
  • Faster cycles - No waiting for slowest zone
  • Better data - ML learns each zone's specific behavior

Advanced Safety Systems

  • Emergency Irrigation: Critical VWC threshold detection with immediate response
  • Thread-Safe Operation: Concurrent processing with proper synchronization
  • Hardware Sequencing: Controlled pump → main line → zone valve operation
  • Redundant Validation: Multi-layer safety checks with failover systems
  • Outlier Protection: Statistical filtering of sensor anomalies
