Terragrix turns Ecowitt soil and weather signals into clear daily instructions—water, skip, or watch. Under the hood, SignalSense detection, the Container Learning Loop, and StressGuard form a professional-grade AI backbone that keeps guidance steady as conditions change. Here’s the full, no-shortcuts flow and why it keeps container plants thriving without guesswork.
1) Connect signals fast
Plug in once, then let Terragrix handle the data.
- Pair Ecowitt soil moisture probes with a GW1100/HP2551 hub; add your Ecowitt weather station or local forecast.
- Map each probe to a container with plant type, pot size, sun exposure, and location so microclimates are understood.
- No sensors yet? Start with manual watering logs—models backfill as soon as probes go live.
2) SignalSense detects real watering
More than a graph—Terragrix knows what actually happened.
- Dual-phase detection separates true watering from rain or noise.
- Moisture rises are logged automatically with timestamps, estimated impact, and which containers were hit.
- Stability checks wait for readings to settle so guidance never whiplashes after a soak.
3) Container Learning Loop adapts
Every planter gets its own brain that keeps improving.
- Learns dry-down speed by season, exposure, plant type, and soil mix.
- Weather and wind adjust urgency so rooftop planters get attention before shaded patios.
- Integrity guardrails catch stale or stuck data before it becomes bad advice.
4) Daylist delivers “do this now” guidance
You get action, not dashboards.
- A two-minute Daylist prioritizes water/skip/watch with plain-language reasons.
- Sensors auto-complete watering tasks when moisture rises; helpers can tap to confirm manual actions.
- StressGuard alerts arrive before wilt or drop, with quiet hours to prevent alert fatigue.
5) Prove and refine with ProofLog
Show the work, keep improving, and stay calm.
- History shows before/after watering curves and how long each pot stayed healthy.
- Export logs for clients, chefs, or teammates and share lightweight views for seasonal helpers.
- Adjust thresholds when you change soil, shade, or irrigation—Terragrix adapts without starting over.
What’s supported today (and what’s next)
- Ecowitt soil moisture probes (recommended) with GW1100/HP2551 hubs.
- Ecowitt weather stations for onsite wind, rain, and temperature.
- Manual watering logs for hybrid setups while you scale sensors.
- Additional sensor brands are on the roadmap; Ecowitt is our first, proven bet.
Why growers feel the difference
- Built for containers, not fields—fast reactions to small soil volumes and microclimates.
- SignalSense smoothing and guardrails keep guidance stable, even with noisy signals.
- Clear, persuasive language—no dashboards required to stay on top of care.
