Dryback is reported in absolute percentage points (daily VWC peak − trough), the primary crop-steering lever. Substrate (pore) EC is the steering output — its trajectory (stack early-flower → pull back in bulking → restack in ripening) matters more than any single value. Steering intent below is inferred from the data; the grower's configured targets could not be read this run (AROYA SPA session offline — see Data Quality).

Uneven zone EC flagged: Flower 3 show ≥2 mS/cm spread between substrate zones over the window — check for channeling, dripper uniformity, or mixed-cultivar zone loading. This is the strongest drip-and-drain talking point in the data.

Per-room deep dive

Each room: substrate VWC (dryback shape), pore-EC by zone (steering output + zone uniformity), VPD, and air temperature — hourly over the full 14 days.

Irrigation framing reference (P0–P3 day model)

P0 — Activation (lights-on → first shot; wait for transpiration to start). P1 — Ramp-up (small shots back to field capacity + first runoff). P2 — Maintenance (pulses holding VWC at FC, managing substrate EC via runoff). P3 — Dry-down (last shot → next morning; the primary steering lever, read as overnight dryback in absolute pp). Dryback benchmarks (absolute pp): veg 5–15 · early-flower/stretch 20–30 · bulking 12–18 · ripening 25–35. VPD (kPa): veg 0.8–1.1 · flower 1.0–1.4. Substrate EC (mS/cm): stacks into early flower, pulled back in bulking, restacked in ripening.
