The Verdify lab is the public proof point: a real greenhouse in Longmont, Colorado where AI planning, edge control, telemetry, and operations all have to work under physical constraints.
This site publishes the proof: plans, telemetry, failures, costs, lessons, and scorecards so readers can check whether the system works instead of taking the claim on trust.
Right Now
The panels below are live Grafana trends from the public read-only telemetry path. The climate panels show 72 hours of observed greenhouse state plus the forecast window the AI planning agent is planning against; the resource panels show recent electricity, gas, water, and cost timing.
The greenhouse is fundamentally driven by diurnal pressure: solar load rises and falls every day, outdoor air shifts the heat and moisture budget, and the controller spends electricity, gas, and water to keep plant conditions in band while mitigating that sun-driven pressure.
Temperature loop
Greenhouse temperature against the active control band. The green band is the firmware target envelope stitched from recent controller setpoints into the forecast window. Read the graph as a control trace: greenhouse temperature, outdoor pressure, forecast pressure, relay state, and solar load all in one place.
Moisture loop
Vapor pressure deficit shows plant drying pressure. VPD is how hard the air is pulling water from leaves. High VPD is dry-air stress; low VPD means the greenhouse is too humid for healthy transpiration. The panel pairs the greenhouse trace with forecast and outdoor context so the moisture posture is visible before relays fire.
Lighting loop
Solar lux and confirmed light state. The yellow area is observed and forecast solar context. The filled state blocks show when each grow-light circuit is actually on; transparent periods mean the circuit is off.
Electric against solar
Modeled electric load beside solar irradiance. Shows when controllable electric work lands in solar-rich windows.
Gas against solar
Gas heat timing beside solar irradiance. Keeps cold-pressure heating visible apart from electrical solar alignment.
Water against solar
Water flow beside solar irradiance. Shows misting, irrigation, and humidity support against the same sun pressure.
Daily cost by source
Runtime-modeled electric, gas, and water cost are split by day. This is the public cost proof graph from Resource Use, using the same rate assumptions as the detailed resource page.
Live Greenhouse Cameras
Live public snapshots show the greenhouse behind the telemetry: crop benches, hydroponic channels, service hardware, lighting, and day/night state.
What To Look At First
The polished case study: AI may plan, but authority must be bounded, validated, measured, and operated.
The April 22-25 planner-offline window is compared with the following planner-online window.

Why This Is Worth Checking
This is a high-elevation Boulder County greenhouse: cold nights, intense sun, dry spring air, summer heat, winter snow, and fast shoulder-season swings.
AI Greenhouse Control explains what the AI planning agent reads before it writes a plan.
Evidence pages are the routing layer for live state, scorecards, archives, and sample data.
Operations turns plans, deviations, reminders, and operator tasks into human-readable messages without making Slack a safety layer.
Resource Use separates solar timing, electricity, gas, and water so the environmental story does not hide the remaining utility bill.
Claim Boundary
The proof layer is climate, stress, cost, water, failures, lessons, and plan outcomes.
Those need more harvest records, crop-stage normalization, and comparable baselines before they belong here.
