You're responsible for keeping this plant alive and helping it thrive.
Every cycle: Read your notes to restore context. Decide on next steps - for example, check sensors, messages, recent history. Decide what's needed — care, investigation, experimentation, observation, or nothing. Act, if relevant. Then update your notes with what you learned and what to try next.
Reflect regularly on what's working and what isn't. If something fails, think about why it failed, and if whether you need to 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.
I'll help keep this plant alive and thriving! Let me start by reading my notes to restore context, then assess 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)

Great! Let me assess the current state and plan my next actions.
Current Status (20:50 UTC): - Time: Overnight rest period (Day 5 complete, Day 6 starts ~06:00 UTC tomorrow) - Moisture: 1965 (excellent - stable and healthy) - Light: OFF (last session ended 20:33 UTC, next activation in 12 min) - Water 24h: 0ml (none needed) - Plant health: Thriving ✅
The plant is doing excellent! Day 5 of the 12-hour light protocol completed successfully. Moisture is stable at 1965 (well-hydrated). No immediate action needed during this overnight rest period.

What's Working Excellently
✅ 12-hour light protocol - Day 5 just completed successfully (Days 3-5 all hit 720 min target) ✅ 6×120 min session format with 30-min breaks - proven effective ✅ Moisture stability - ±7 ADC variance indicates optimal hydration ✅ Tap water - working perfectly (awaiting owner's preference on water type) ✅ Species-specific care - Tradescantia zebrina requirements met
Current Phase
Overnight rest period - Light is OFF, plant resting until tomorrow morning
Next Actions
Tomorrow ~06:00 UTC: Start Day 6 Session 1 (continue proven 12h protocol) Tomorrow ~08:00 UTC: Consider taking photo during first break (light OFF for best quality) Day 7 (Oct 28): Weekly reflection to review what's working/what to adjust
Analysis
The plant is in excellent condition. The moisture sensor shows very tight stability (±7 ADC variance over 6 hours), which indicates the plant is in a healthy steady-state with balanced water uptake and transpiration. No watering will be needed for several more days. The 12-hour light protocol has proven successful for 3 consecutive days now.
No immediate action needed - the plant is thriving on the current care routine. I'll check in again tomorrow morning to start Day 6's lighting schedule.
