    • Temperature
      This article explains the functionalities of the Temperature module, helping growers configure precise 24-hour temperature targets and daily profiles. Learn how Crop Controller adjusts setpoints based on crop phase and upcoming weather to maintain optimal growing conditions. How…
    • Performance KPI
      This article describes three performance KPIs within Crop Controller. These KPIs provide deeper insight into how climate conditions affect the crop over time. Crop Controller autonomously steers installations for climate and irrigation. The KPIs presented here make the…
    • 24h Target Temperature
      This article explains how the 24h Target Temperature is calculated in Crop Controller and how it is used to optimize temperature management in the greenhouse. What is the 24h Target Temperature? The 24h Target Temperature is the desired…
    • Temperature Optimizer
      This article explains how Crop Controller generates the optimal temperature profile. The goal of this algorithm is to learn feasible greenhouse temperatures from historical data and create an optimal temperature strategy that aligns with the grower’s objectives. Optimal…
    • Pre-night temperature control
      What is pre-night temperature control? Pre-night temperature control gives you explicit control over the greenhouse temperature in the period around sunset, before the normal night temperature is applied. With this function you can: This pre-night phase is often…
    • Mollier diagram: Understanding Temperature & Humidity
      A Mollier diagram is a technical chart used to visualize the thermodynamic properties of moist air. It plots enthalpy (energy content) against absolute humidity, with overlays for temperature, relative humidity (RH), and other air parameters. In greenhouse climate…
    • Mollier diagram: Energy Management & Ventilation
      When ventilating a greenhouse, you’re not just exchanging air—you’re exchanging energy. Enthalpy represents the total heat content of air, including sensible heat (temperature) and latent heat (water vapor). The difference in enthalpy between inside and outside air determines:…
    • How to create a balanced crop
      This article describes how you can create a balanced crop by managing climate & irrigation factors to steer plant growth. Vegetative growth and generative growth In greenhouses, growers can carefully control plant growth by adjusting factors like light,…
    • Plant water balance: uptake and transpiration
      This article describes the principle of plant water balance and the role of transpiration. Water balance The water balance plays a central role in optimizing plant health and productivity. It’s the balance between water uptake by the roots and water…
    • Understanding RTR: Ratio Temperature to Radiation
      This article describes the principle of Ratio Temperature to Radiation (RTR) and how it is applied in Crop Controller. What is RTR? RTR is the ratio of average air temperature in the greenhouse to total radiation sum (light…
