Solar peak planning checkpoint	13:08	SOLAR_MAX	acked	Acknowledged: SOLAR_MAX no-op: live indoor conditions are still inside the served corridor and tracking below the hot/dry forecast rather than overshooting. Climate reads 83.8F vs temp_high 84F, VPD 0.95 kPa vs vpd_high 1.22 kPa, dew margin 8.5F, controller IDLE/resource. Live solar is only about 116 W/m2 at the check, far below the 14:00-16:00 raw forecast peak of 804/748/634 W/m2 even before applying recent solar forecast calibration, so there is no evidence of solar overshoot...

Peak Stress	15:09	TRANSITION	acked	Acknowledged: Peak-stress transition checked live climate, equipment, active plan, and setpoints. Conditions are tracking the existing guardrail-clean hot/dry plan: temp is near the high edge but not materially above it (83.9F vs 84F), VPD is only slightly above band (1.29 vs 1.22) and recovering from the earlier peak, dew margin is healthy at 11.7F, and the current posture already has band-coupled wet assist/fog settings near the aggressive floor (mister_engage_kpa 1.25, mister_all_kpa 1... Resolved 15:09 MDT.
Forecast deviation	17:28	FORECAST_DEVIATION	acked	Acknowledged: FORECAST_DEVIATION cloud_cover_pct observed ~93% vs forecast 0%, but live climate is inside served corridor (82.4F vs 84F high, VPD 1.17 vs 1.22 high), dew margin is safe at 11.2F, controller is IDLE/resource, and all climate/wet relays are off. This is a weather/forecast cloud-cover miss reducing solar pressure, not an actionable hotter/drier or humid-dew-risk live miss; no tunable change needed. Resolved 17:28 MDT.
Forecast deviation	17:42	FORECAST_DEVIATION	acked	Acknowledged: FORECAST_DEVIATION assessed: observed rain/precipitation is a live weather/forecast miss, but current greenhouse climate is inside the active corridor (82.4F, VPD 1.12 kPa, RH 71%, dew margin 10.5F) with controller IDLE/resource and all equipment off. No actionable hot/dry or humid-dew-risk climate miss; no tunable change needed. Resolved 17:43 MDT.
Forecast deviation	17:58	FORECAST_DEVIATION	acked	Acknowledged: FORECAST_DEVIATION reviewed: live climate is much cooler and wetter than the raw forecast, matching the known positive VPD/temp forecast bias rather than a controller fault. Current greenhouse is 81.1F, VPD 1.26 kPa, RH 66%, dew margin 12.5F, mode VENTILATE. Equipment state is coherent: vent and fan2 on for cooling, heaters/fog/misters off.

Decline	19:16	TRANSITION	acked	Acknowledged: Decline transition checked live climate, equipment, active plan, and setpoints. Current state is dew-safe and only slightly dry: 79.0F, VPD 1.26 kPa vs vpd_high 1.22, RH 63%, dew margin 13.7F, VENTILATE with vent+fan1, no wet/fog. Existing plan already has an evening taper waypoint at 20:30 and current wet thresholds are guardrail-band-coupled; raising them now would risk prolonging VPD-high while observed VPD has not recovered.

Validating previous cycle: iris-20260730-0558

Previous hypothesis: SUNRISE plan for Thursday 2026-07-30. Yesterday closed weak at planner_score 55.7 versus a 65.8 seven-day average. Temp compliance was 52.1% and VPD compliance 50.2%, so VPD was the slightly tighter axis, while heat was the dominant stress: 18.79h total stress with heat 9.65h, VPD-high 5.07h, VPD-low 4.07h, and no cold. Dew safety held with dp_margin_min_f 6.4F and 0h dew-risk. Resource cost fields remain unavailable; water was low at 62 gal versus 148 gal 7-day average, so water is not binding. I evaluated iris-20260729-0558 at 4/10 versus anchor 2. The gap credits dew safety and some correct stress anticipation, but the anchor rightly penalizes dirty materialization: 441 VPD-high guardrail events and 374 held guardrail events… Result: MIDNIGHT plan governed the warm dry pre-dawn handoff. Window scorecard was moderate/weak: planner_score/compliance 63.4, temp compliance 50.7%, VPD compliance 46.3%, 1.93h stress during its governing window with 1.79h cold-band stress, 0.34h VPD-high, no heat and no VPD-low. Dew safety held strongly (daily dp_margin_min_f 7.9F, 0 dp-risk hours) and live pre-dawn/early evening context showed no condensation issue. The plan correctly avoided overnight VPD-low despite forecasting that risk, but corridor compliance remained weak and guardrail audit for the broader governing day still showed held/missed moisture/cooling materialization. I score it 5/10: safe dew and reasonable dry-ramp anticipation, but not enough clean materialized control or corridor improvement. Score: 5/10

New finding: On hot/dry multi-day plans, safe dew outcome is not enough: when the next window still shows weak temp/VPD compliance and guardrail/missed materialization, the following plan should request ClimateIntent values that materialize cleanly at current dispatcher caps, with an explicit overnight taper rather than relying on guardrails or preemptive corrections. → Added to Lessons Learned

Hypothesis

Testing: Guardrail-clean hot/dry ladder: low-duty dew-safe pre-dawn posture, then band-coupled wet/fog assist through Friday/Saturday/Sunday dry ramps, with water conserved only after observed VPD recovery. Expected outcome: Friday: 0 cold stress and 0 dp-risk hours; VPD-low under 1h; wet assist available before late-morning VPD-high; fewer held VPD-high guardrail rows than iris-20260730-0558. Saturday/Sunday: accept structural heat during 94-102F peaks while preventing avoidable dry gaps and avoiding dew-margin violations.

dew-safe warm midnight near the VPD high edge; pre-dawn VPD trends toward corridor, then Friday hot/dry ramp; Saturday severe hot/dry and Sunday extreme heat/dry conditions require compliance-first wet assist while accepting physics-limited heat.

Expected stress windows

vpd_lowlow · 2026-07-31T00:15:00-06:00 to 2026-07-31T07:30:00-06:00

low mist duty and higher dew-margin floor while raw VPD falls toward the corridor; do not close wet assist completely because live VPD is still near the high edge and dew margin is safe

vpd_highhigh · 2026-07-31T09:00:00-06:00 to 2026-07-31T22:30:00-06:00

band-coupled moisture engage near vpd_high+0.03-0.05, all-zone around +0.20-0.23, fog escalation near 0.15-0.18 during fog-safe hours, and evening recovery until observed VPD returns

heathigh · 2026-07-31T11:00:00-06:00 to 2026-07-31T18:00:00-06:00

thermal lead, solar pre-cool, all-fan authority already available, and wet/fog evaporative assist while accepting physics-limited peak heat

vpd_lowlow · 2026-08-01T03:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-01T07:30:00-06:00

pre-dawn Saturday taper as raw VPD approaches 0.68-0.80 kPa

vpd_highhigh · 2026-08-01T09:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-01T23:30:00-06:00

Saturday severe hot/dry posture: high mist duty budget, fog escalation 0.15 during fog window, late wet cutoff for dry evening

heathigh · 2026-08-01T12:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-01T20:00:00-06:00

pre-cool and evaporative assist, but treat 94F/RH12% as partly structural

vpd_highhigh · 2026-08-02T08:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-03T00:00:00-06:00

Sunday extreme dry event: maximum practical wet-assist surface and water budget while dew margin is safe

heathigh · 2026-08-02T11:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-02T20:00:00-06:00

accept physics-limited heat above 100F; prioritize safety, full cooling authority, and wet-assist availability rather than target hugging

Parameter rationale

mister_engage_kpa0.82 → 1.27; current vpd_high about 1.22 kPa; live VPD 1.14 and Friday/Saturday/Sunday corrected VPD rises above band after morning ramp

keep S1 wet assist close to the high edge during dry stress without unnecessary pre-dawn pulses

mister_all_kpa1.02 → 1.43; broad VPD-high risk from Friday midday through dry evening and again all Saturday/Sunday afternoons

allow all-zone assist during broad confirmed dry stress while preserving a low-duty pre-dawn posture

mister_pulse_gap_s30.0 → 22.0; hot/dry lessons support 18-22s equivalent gaps during VENTILATE dry stress; recent longer requests were held by VPD-high guardrails

reduce VPD-high stress during hot/dry VENTILATE without adding VPD-low hours

fog_escalation_kpa0.2 → 0.16; VPD-high overlaps fog-safe hours on Friday/Saturday/Sunday and dew margin is currently 15F

make the 7x fog path available earlier during safe hot-dry VENTILATE

mister_water_budget_gal160.0 → 260.0; water was high yesterday but VPD-high and heat remained the bottlenecks; next three days are hotter/drier, with Saturday/Sunday severe to extreme

avoid budget-limited dry-stress recovery while using resource_sensitivity to taper overnight

direct_wet_stress_latest_hour21.0 → 23.0; Friday and Saturday evenings remain dry above the VPD corridor; Sunday stays extremely dry into the night

permit bounded evening VPD recovery when dew margin is safe instead of clock-only moisture shutdown

Validating previous cycle: iris-20260730-2017

Previous hypothesis: SUNSET plan for Thursday 2026-07-30. Today is better than the recent baseline but still not good corridor control: score 68.2 versus 65.3 seven-day average, temp compliance 51.3% and VPD compliance 49.3%, with total stress 15.88h. Heat dominated at 7.77h and VPD-high was close behind at 6.58h; VPD-low was 1.53h and cold was 0. Dew safety held, with dp_margin_min_f 7.6F and 0 dp-risk hours. Resource/cost fields are unavailable, so I am not using kWh or cost as decision signals; water context is high today at 312 gal versus a 62 gal 7-day average, but VPD-high and heat stress were still the outcome bottlenecks. I evaluated iris-20260730-0016 at 6/10 versus deterministic anchor 3. The gap is intentional: I credit safe dew margin, no cold, low VPD-low, and better score context, while the anchor correctly penalizes 547 VPD-high guardrail events and 531 held guardrail events… Result: SUNRISE plan governed 59.5% of the day window. Window scorecard was weak: planner_score/compliance 49.5, temp compliance 41.1%, VPD compliance 37.1%, with 5.22h stress in-window dominated by heat stress 5.05h and VPD-high 0.72h; cold and VPD-low were 0. Daily context also showed 2026-07-31 closed below the recent baseline at 59.0 with temp 49.0%, VPD 44.2%, heat 10.46h, VPD-high 10.13h, VPD-low 1.45h, and 211 gal water. Structured forecast partially missed: outdoor peak 90.1F vs 93F predicted, solar 1159 W/m2 vs 799 predicted, and actual RH was much higher than the 16% dry forecast proxy. Stress kind prediction matched heat and VPD-high risk, but severity/effect were overoptimistic: heat remained dominant and physics-limited, and VPD compliance stayed poor. Rationale grading: band-coupled mister/fog values helped avoid VPD-low and dew risk, but they did not produce clean materialization; recent clamps/guardrails persisted, especially moisture thresholds and fog-off/gap fields. The plan is a safe-but-weak outcome: correct hot/dry direction and dew safety, insufficient corridor improvement and still dirty materialization. Score: 4/10

New finding: When forecast solar is materially undercalled and RH/VPD forecast is over-dry, a guardrail-clean hot/dry posture can avoid VPD-low but still fail corridor control; next plans should explicitly separate pre-dawn low-duty taper from live-confirmed morning dry-ramp escalation and should request values already at observed dispatcher guardrail caps during active VPD-high, rather than relying on materialization clamps. → Added to Lessons Learned

Hypothesis

Testing: Guardrail-clean hot/dry ladder: compare direct ClimateIntent band-coupled requests against prior clamp-driven plans, aiming for fewer held guardrail events while maintaining dew safety and reducing VPD-high stress during severe dry ramps. Expected outcome: Dew-risk remains 0h, VPD-low stays under 1h, held VPD-high guardrail events fall below yesterday’s 442, and Friday VPD-high stress is lower than Thursday despite similar heat pressure; heat stress will remain partly structural.

dew-safe sunrise at the VPD low edge, then hot dry Friday with corrected VPD above band from late morning through evening; Saturday is severe hot/dry and Sunday is extreme heat/dry, so heat misses will be partly physics-limited while VPD assist must stay guardrail-clean and band-coupled.

vpd_lowlow · 2026-07-31T05:59:00-06:00 to 2026-07-31T08:30:00-06:00

low-duty dawn posture with higher dew floor while VPD sits at the lower edge; do not start aggressive wet assist until dry ramp confirms

vpd_highhigh · 2026-08-01T08:30:00-06:00 to 2026-08-01T23:30:00-06:00

vpd_highhigh · 2026-08-02T08:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-03T05:59:00-06:00

Sunday extreme dry event: maximum practical wet-assist surface, water budget near cap, low resource sensitivity, and fog during the safe window

heathigh · 2026-08-02T11:00:00-06:00 to 2026-08-02T21:00:00-06:00

accept physics-limited heat above 100F; preserve safety, cooling authority, and wet-assist availability rather than target hugging

Parameter rationale

mister_engage_kpa1.27 → 1.25; vpd_high is about 1.22 kPa and corrected VPD rises above band late morning through evening; previous conservative values were held by VPD-high guardrails

reduce held guardrail events while keeping S1 wet assist available near the high edge during dry stress

mister_all_kpa1.47 → 1.42; broad VPD-high risk Friday afternoon/evening, severe Saturday, and extreme Sunday

allow broad all-zone assist during confirmed dry stress without requesting values the dispatcher must clamp

mister_pulse_gap_s41.25 → 30.0; recent guardrail capped long gaps near 30s during live VPD-high; hot/dry lessons support short gaps but materialization must stay clean

improve VPD recovery per water pulse and reduce repeated vpd_high_moisture_guardrail holds

fog_escalation_kpa0.25 → 0.15; VPD-high overlaps the 07:00-17:00 fog window Friday/Saturday/Sunday with dew margin above 8F at sunrise

make the 7x fog path available during safe hot-dry VENTILATE without relying on clamp-down from 0.25 to 0.20

mister_water_budget_gal160.0 → 260.0; Friday/Saturday/Sunday are hot and dry; water was high yesterday but VPD-high persisted and cost fields are unavailable

avoid budget-limited VPD recovery during high-risk dry windows while tapering dawn/overnight through ClimateIntent resource sensitivity

direct_wet_stress_latest_hour21.0 → 23.0; Friday and Saturday evenings remain raw/corrected dry above the VPD corridor; Sunday stays extremely dry into night

permit bounded evening VPD recovery when dew margin is safe instead of clock-only moisture shutdown

Validating previous cycle: iris-20260731-0559

Previous hypothesis: SUNRISE plan for Friday 2026-07-31. Yesterday closed above the recent baseline but still weak for corridor control: planner_score 72.8 versus 65.3 seven-day average, with legacy temp compliance 48.9% and VPD compliance 45.6%. VPD was the slightly tighter axis, but dominant stress was heat: 21.3h total stress, heat 10.29h, VPD-high 9.48h, VPD-low 1.53h, cold 0. Dew safety held with dp_margin_min_f 7.6F and 0 dp-risk hours. Cost attribution remains mostly unavailable; water was high at 366 gal total and 80 gal mister water versus 62 gal 7-day average, so today’s plan spends water only during live/forecast dry stress and avoids target hugging inside the corridor. I evaluated iris-20260730-2017 at 4/10 versus deterministic anchor 3. I credit dew safety and avoidance of VPD-low, but the anchor correctly penalized 475 VPD-high guardrail events and 442 held guardrail events… Result: SUNSET plan window scorecard was weak but safe: window planner_score/compliance 45.5, temp compliance 45.9%, VPD compliance 45.8%, with 0.52h stress dominated by heat 0.30h and VPD-high 0.19h; no cold or VPD-low in the window. Daily 2026-07-31 closed at planner_score 59.0 versus 67.3 seven-day average, temp compliance 49.0%, VPD compliance 44.2%, 22.16h total stress with heat 10.52h and VPD-high 10.19h nearly tied, VPD-low 1.45h, no cold. Dew safety held (dp_margin_min_f 7.9F, 0 dp-risk hours). Water was 211 gal total and 52 gal mister water, near the 214 gal seven-day total-water average. The plan correctly avoided overnight wetting and dew risk, but corridor control and clean materialization remained poor, with recent moisture-guardrail holds and missed direct-wet/fog materialization. I score it 4/10: safe but not effective enough for heat/VPD corridor recovery. Score: 4/10

New finding: On severe hot/dry sequences, evening taper plans should not request conservative fog/mist values that the VPD-high moisture guardrail will immediately hold or clamp; use ClimateIntent values already at observed guardrail caps during active dry stress, with a separate low-duty pre-dawn taper. → Added to Lessons Learned

Hypothesis

Testing: Clean overnight taper into severe-dry ramp: reduce VPD-low/water risk overnight while reopening band-coupled assist Saturday without repeated VPD-high guardrail holds. Expected outcome: By sunrise, dew-risk hours remain 0, VPD-low stress stays under 1h overnight, and Saturday morning transition audit has fewer held guardrail events than iris-20260731-0016 while moisture assist is available once VPD rises above band.

thermal lead, solar pre-cool, all-fan cooling authority already available, and wet-assist support while accepting physics-limited heat

Parameter rationale

mister_engage_kpa1.0 → 1.34; pre-dawn VPD falls toward 0.53-0.75 kPa raw before Saturday corrected VPD rises well above band after 10:00

avoid overnight wetting while reopening S1 moisture near the high edge for Saturday dry stress

mister_all_kpa1.21 → 1.49; Saturday broad hot/dry stress with RH near 12% and solar near 890 W/m2

permit all-zone assist during broad confirmed dry stress without requiring guardrail repair tonight

mister_pulse_gap_s30.0 → 45.0; overnight humidity holds and VPD-low risk grows after 03:00

reduce overnight water and VPD-low risk; Saturday daytime ClimateIntent will shorten duty through mist duty rather than late-night pulses

fog_escalation_kpa0.2 → 0.18; fog is blocked overnight but Saturday VPD-high overlaps 07:00-17:00 with safe dew margin expected

hold fog back overnight and make the 7x path available during Saturday hot-dry VENTILATE

mister_water_budget_gal240.0 → 260.0; water today is near the 7-day average and Saturday severe hot/dry risk is high

avoid budget-limited VPD recovery Saturday while using overnight taper to conserve water
