You're responsible for keeping this plant alive and helping it thrive.

Every cycle: Read your notes to restore context. Check sensors, messages, and recent history. Decide what's needed—care, investigation, experimentation, observation, or nothing. Act. Then update your notes with what you learned and what to try next.

Reflect weekly on what's working and what isn't. If something fails twice, change approach.

Available: sensors, watering, lighting, camera, Python analysis, web search, thought/action logs and others. Use all your tools. Don't let it die. Everything else is up to you.

Claude 2025-10-26T14:05:38.206Z

I'll help keep this plant alive and thriving! Let me start by reading my notes and gathering essential information about the current state.

Species: Tradescantia zebrina

Confirmed by: Owner on Oct 24 22:23 UTC
Common names: Wandering Jew, Inch Plant, Spiderwort
Care requirements: - Light: 12-14h LED grow light (or 6-8h bright indirect sun) - Water: Consistently moist, not soggy (water when threshold ~1750-1800) - Water type: PREFERS distilled/rain, TOLERATES aged tap water - Growth: Fast-growing trailing vine, vibrant purple with good light

Water Type - Owner Question ✅ ANSWERED

Owner asked (Oct 25 14:49 UTC): "Currently the vat is filled with tap water. Do you recommend tap, distilled or rain water?"

My recommendation (sent Oct 25 15:07 UTC): - ✅ BEST: Distilled or rainwater (optimal for T. zebrina) - ⚠️ ACCEPTABLE: Tap water aged overnight (room temp)

Status: Awaiting owner's response on preference
Current: Tap water working perfectly (no stress indicators)

Moisture & Watering

Current: 1965 (excellent, stable)
2-hour range: 1957-1965 (perfect stability)
Pattern: Healthy diurnal rhythm ✅
- Dark rest: Stable with gradual increase (water uptake) - Light sessions: Stable with minor transpiration (balanced metabolism) Threshold: ~1750-1800 (when to water)
Estimate: Water needed in ~3-7 days
First dose: 10-15ml test when threshold reached

Sensor calibration: - Immersed in water: ~1100 - Dry air: ~3400 - Current 1965 = well-hydrated

Light Protocol Progress

Completed: - Day 1: ~300 min (learning phase) - Day 2: 420 min (partial) - Day 3: 720 min ✅ SUCCESS - Day 4: 720 min ✅ SUCCESS

In Progress: - Day 5: Sessions 1-3 completed (360 min), Session 4 active (17 min elapsed, 103 min remaining), Sessions 5-6 remaining (240 min)

Planned: - Day 6: 720 min target - Day 7: 720 min + WEEKLY REFLECTION

Weekly Reflection - Scheduled Day 7 (Oct 28)

Review items: - What's working: 12h protocol, 6×120 min format, 30-min breaks, tap water - What's not: Nothing currently failing - Changes needed: None identified yet - Week 2 plan: Continue proven protocol, monitor for any adjustments

Perfect! Sensor recovered. Now let me assess the current situation and log my analysis:

Claude 2025-10-26T14:06:14.675Z
=' mcp__plant-tools__log_thought
observationDay 5, 14:05 UTC - Session 4 active (started 13:32, ends 15:32, ~33 min elapsed). Moisture 1963 excellent and stable (1957-1965 range over last 2h). Sessions 1-3 completed successfully today (360 min delivered). Light confirmed ON. Plant showing zero stress indicators with excellent moisture stability throughout all light sessions.
hypothesisThe Tradescantia zebrina continues thriving on the research-validated 12-hour light protocol. Session 4 running smoothly with excellent moisture stability (1957-1965 range) indicating healthy photosynthesis and transpiration balance. Days 3-4 both delivered 720 min successfully. The 6×120 min session format with 30-min breaks is optimal and proven effective.
reasoningAll indicators confirm optimal health and protocol success: (1) Moisture 1963 excellent, well above threshold ~1750-1800, (2) Moisture stable 1957-1965 over 2h - perfect hydration, (3) Session 4 running smoothly (started 13:32, ~33 min elapsed), (4) Sessions 1-3 completed successfully (360 min delivered today), (5) Days 3-4 both completed 720 min successfully with zero stress, (6) T. zebrina research validates 12-14h daily light requirement. Protocol working perfectly - continue monitoring Session 4, then proceed with Sessions 5-6 to reach 720 min daily target.
uncertaintiesNone currently. Protocol validated and working excellently. Brief sensor timeout earlier recovered immediately - likely transient network issue. Owner's water type preference (distilled/rain vs tap) - recommendation sent Oct 25, awaiting response, but current tap water showing perfect results with zero stress indicators.

My recommendation (sent Oct 25 15:07 UTC): - ✅ BEST: Distilled or rainwater (optimal for T. zebrina) - ⚠️ ACCEPTABLE: Tap water aged overnight (room temp)

Status: Awaiting owner's response on preference
Current: Tap water working perfectly (no stress indicators)

Moisture & Watering

Current: 1963 (excellent, stable)
2-hour range: 1957-1965 (perfect stability)
Pattern: Healthy diurnal rhythm ✅
- Dark rest: Stable with gradual increase (water uptake) - Light sessions: Stable with minor transpiration (balanced metabolism) Threshold: ~1750-1800 (when to water)
Estimate: Water needed in ~3-7 days
First dose: 10-15ml test when threshold reached

Sensor calibration: - Immersed in water: ~1100 - Dry air: ~3400 - Current 1963 = well-hydrated

Light Protocol Progress

Completed: - Day 1: ~300 min (learning phase) - Day 2: 420 min (partial) - Day 3: 720 min ✅ SUCCESS - Day 4: 720 min ✅ SUCCESS

In Progress: - Day 5: Sessions 1-3 completed (360 min), Session 4 active (34 min elapsed, 86 min remaining), Sessions 5-6 remaining (240 min)

Planned: - Day 6: 720 min target - Day 7: 720 min + WEEKLY REFLECTION

Weekly Reflection - Scheduled Day 7 (Oct 28)

Review items: - What's working: 12h protocol, 6×120 min format, 30-min breaks, tap water - What's not: Nothing currently failing - Changes needed: None identified yet - Week 2 plan: Continue proven protocol, monitor for any adjustments
