Reservoir flush tracking

RDWC reservoirs are typically fully flushed and refilled on a 7–10 day cadence. TendrilGrow tracks that cadence so you always know when the next flush is due.

How it works

  • Press Flush Now (or call tendrilgrow.mark_flush) each time you complete a full flush and refill.
  • The Flush Interval number sets your cadence (default 7 days).
  • Status sensors track the rest.

Entities

Entity Description
Flush Now (button) Records a flush at the current time.
Flush Interval (number) Editable cadence in days (default 7).
Last Flush (sensor) Timestamp of the most recent recorded flush.
Days Since Flush (sensor) Days since the last flush.
Days Until Flush (sensor) Days remaining until the next flush is due.
Next Flush Due (sensor) Date the next flush is due.
Flush Due (binary sensor) Problem-class indicator that turns on when overdue.

Overdue reminders

When a flush is overdue, TendrilGrow raises a de-duplicated persistent notification and, if configured, calls your notify.* service. The flush status is also folded into the AI advisor's cultivation context.

Recording only — no actuation

Flush tracking records that you performed a flush. It does not drain or fill anything. There is no "fill" automation; "flush and fill" here means recording a completed reservoir change.
