Product Updates

Harvest Forecast now shows you which settings are needed to start your forecast, and takes you straight to them.

What's new

When a forecast needs input before it can run for example: harvest rounds, colour scale or harvest days, a notice above the chart names every missing setting at once, such as: "Your harvest rounds are not set. Fill them in under Rounds in your Cultivation Strategy." An Open Cultivation Strategy button takes you directly to that section if you can edit the crop plan. The Last simulation status now reads Blocked while inputs are outstanding.

Why it matters

You see what your forecast is waiting for and can complete it in one click, so your forecast can get going sooner.

How it works

Open Harvest Forecast for a cultivation. If settings are missing, the notice above the chart lists them. If you can edit the crop plan, click Open Cultivation Strategy to jump to the relevant section, fill in the missing settings, and your forecast can run.

Availability

Pepper and tomato, in the web app, with the next web app release.

Choose the units you work in: light in mol PAR or Joules, humidity in g/m³ or g/kg.

What's new

Source now offers new PAR metrics (mol/m²) and new humidity deficit metrics (g/m³) alongside the existing Joule and g/kg versions. A per-user Display units setting decides which unit you read. PAR metrics can also be used as targets.

Why it matters

You read light and humidity in the units your team, your industry and your climate computer use every day, with no mental conversion.

How it works

-Hover your name in the bottom-left corner and click Profile.

-Open the Units tab.

-Under Display units, set Light to J/cm², mol PAR, or Both.

-Set Humidity to g/kg, g/m³, or Both. Each choice saves on the click.

-Open any metric or KPI picker. Metrics in your preferred unit sit at the top of each category; metrics in the other unit are grouped under Unpreferred, below a divider, and stay selectable.

Availability

All customers and all crops. Available on web and app.

Ask Source now tells you how much water you're going to give relative to light, for today and tomorrow.

What's new

Ask Source answers "How much water am I going to give relative to light?" for any day up to tomorrow. Past days use the measured ratio. Today and tomorrow use Irrigation Control's own irrigation plan and the radiation forecast, with an on-track verdict against the plan's target band.

Why it matters

You can check today's and tomorrow's water-to-light ratio against your own range while there is still time to adjust the strategy.

How it works

-Open Ask Source in the Source web or mobile app.

-Ask "How much water am I going to give relative to light today?" (or tomorrow). Name the cultivation if it isn't the one you have open.

-Ask Source replies with one value per day in dL/MJ, marked measured for past days or predicted for today and tomorrow, plus an on-track verdict.

-To judge against your own range, include it: "Our range is 2.2 to 2.6 dL/MJ. Am I on track for tomorrow?"

-If a day can't be predicted (for example, no current plan for it), Ask Source says so and explains why.

Availability

All crops, for all cultivations running Irrigation Control, on mobile and web.

Follow any fruit-set week forward and see exactly when it will be harvested.

What's new

The cohort chart on Predicted harvest breakdown now works in both directions. Alongside seeing which fruit-set weeks feed a harvest week, you can click a fruit-set week and the chart changes to follow that week forwards across the harvest weeks. The chart uses a shared scale for both rows and highlights the week you are comparing.

Why it matters

You can answer the question "where will this week's fruit set be harvested?" directly, and compare bars across rows on one scale. The design was validated with growers before it was built.

How it works

Open Predicted harvest breakdown in Harvest Forecast on web. Click a fruit-set week and the chart follows that week forwards.

Availability

Tomato and Pepper, for current Predicted harvest breakdown users. Web only (not available on mobile). Live now.

Harvest, adjust and correct fruit on any node, however long the stem grows.

What's new

The Plant App now shows a page of stem layers sized to your crop: 15 layers for tomato, 20 for pepper and 30 for cucumber. That covers every layer carrying fruit on nearly every stem. A button at the bottom of the stem opens the older layers whenever you need them.

Why it matters

You keep full access to every node on the stem, so you can harvest, adjust and correct fruit wherever it is, while the view stays focused on the layers you work with most.

How it works

Open a stem in the Plant App on your iPad. The most recent layers appear first. Tap the button at the bottom of the stem to open the older layers.

Availability

All crops. Plant App on iPad only. Rolling out to all Plant App users from v2.45.0 (TestFlight first).

Now you can check the weather forecast, including peak radiation, without leaving the Source app.

What's new
The Source App now includes a built-in weather forecast module, pulling from the same weather data already powering your Source platform. Alongside the standard forecast, you can see peak irradiance for today and the days ahead. Radiation forecasts are also now available in mol PAR, a measurement type already used for realized metrics, and switching between units is a shared setting between the web cultivation settings page and the mobile app.

Why it matters
Checking the weather is something growers already do multiple times a day. Now it doesn't mean switching to a separate app. Seeing peak radiation ahead of time helps growers plan around when the sun will be strongest, instead of guessing.

Availability
Live now on iOS and Android.

If your IIVO climate computer counts lamps in the radiation sum, you can now start the irrigation day on light instead of the clock.

What's new

The Radiation start in Phase 1 is now available for growers whose climate computer includes artificial light in the radiation sum. Irrigation Control counts the lamp light when it predicts the first shot.

Why it matters

The first shot Control plans lines up with the moment your climate computer fires, so Phase 1 and the first drain stay on plan on lit mornings. In counterfactual runs on 7 mornings with lamps on, the planned start matched the simulated climate computer on all 7.

How it works

-In General settings, make sure Artificial light is on, with the lamp window and intensity set to how your lamps actually run.

-Open the irrigation strategy settings and go to Phase 1.

-Choose Radiation as the irrigation start.

-Set the Radiation sum setpoint first shot, Earliest start time and Latest start time.

-Simulate and check the first shot in the irrigation strategy chart. On mornings when lamps have run since the night, the first shot usually lands on the earliest start time.

Availability

Released September 24, 2026 for Irrigation Control cultivations, all crops. Intended for IIVO climate computers; ask your Source contact to enable it. Web app only. Screens are not taken into account, only lamps.

Each cultivation's lighting metrics can now count only the lamps that light that crop.

What's new

A Lighting units picker in cultivation settings lets you choose which lamp strings count toward each cultivation's lighting metrics, instead of every cultivation using all lighting units linked to the greenhouse.

Why it matters

When varieties in the same greenhouse run on different lighting schedules, each one now gets its own lighting numbers. LED and HPS lighting time, LED and HPS radiation, LED and HPS PAR sum and Total radiation reflect only the selected units. Metrics built on Total radiation, such as plant balance, RTR and LUE, follow the same selection, and so do charts and the metric drill-down.

How it works

-Select the cultivation in the navigation menu and open Cultivation settings.

-Click Edit on the Season details tab.

-In the Sensors box, find Lighting units and uncheck Use all lighting units linked to the greenhouse.

-Open Select lighting units and pick the units that light this cultivation. Type part of a name to search.

-Click Save. The units you picked appear under Lighting units.

You can also set this when creating a new cultivation.

Availability

Live for all customers and all crops since September 23, 2026. Web app only.

Speak your measurements as you take them, no free hand needed, and no signal required.

What's new

-Measure by voice: Read out loud vegetative measurements as you take them; the app records each value and moves on when you say "next". Unusual values are read back so you can check them.

-Works offline on Android: After a one-time language download, voice entry works without a connection.

-Measure in your own order: Arrange vegetative measurements in the order you walk the path. Voice pages follow the same order.

-Choose what you count on a truss: Head growers can switch on bud counting, and split the flower counter into open and closed flowers (tomato), per cultivation

Why it matters

A vegetative round means holding a caliper in one hand and a tape in the other. Voice entry lets growers record every reading hands-free and eyes-on-the-plant, keeping the round moving and the data clean. The new counting options capture more detail on flowering when you need it, and the forecast readiness card shows at a glance when you've measured enough stems.

How it works

Voice entry

-Update the Source app to version 1.4.2.

-Open a stem's vegetative measurements.

-Tap the mic beside Save or Next, and allow microphone access the first time.

-Read each value out as you take it, for example "nine point four".

-Say "next" or tap Next to move on: the next page is already listening.

-Tap the field any time to type instead.

On Android, the first use downloads the speech model for your language once (about 66 MB), so do it on Wi-Fi.

Counting options

-In the Source web app, open the cultivation's settings.

-In the Crop Assessment System card, turn on Count buds, Count open and closing flowers, or both.

-In the mobile app, open a truss - the counter shows the new stages.

-Review or correct open and closing counts on the web under Plant measurements.

Availability

Live now for tomato growers and head growers on mobile app 1.4.2 (iOS and Android). Voice entry works on iPhone, and on Android in Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Polish and Russian. Romanian works on iPhone only.

A cleaner irrigation strategy screen, showing only the settings that apply to your cultivation.

What's new

The irrigation strategy screen now shows only the settings relevant to your cultivation. Settings that don't apply - like artificial light settings when no artificial lights are present - no longer appear. Settings marked as read-only still show their current value, but can't be changed.

Why it matters

A simpler view of what you can adjust, with fewer ways to accidentally change a setting that's already been tuned for your greenhouse.

How it works

Open Irrigation Strategy for your cultivation in the web app. The settings shown are the ones that apply to your cultivation. For settings with a defined range, enter a value within that range. If you enter a value outside the range, the form shows the allowed limits before you save. Need a setting opened up or a range widened? Ask your Source contact; they can adjust it for your cultivation directly.

Availability

Live for everyone, across all crops, on web only.

Ask a question, get your harvest numbers back

What's new

Ask Source can now answer questions about waste percentage, fruit weight, and brix using your harvest registrations, by day or by week.

Why it matters

Check waste, fruit weight, or brix in a sentence instead of opening the registration cards one day at a time. Ask Source also tells you which system recorded the number, so you know whether a fruit weight came from a manual entry or a Scan App measurement.

How it works

Open Ask Source in the web or mobile app and ask in your own words: "What was my waste percentage last week?" or "Was my harvest at PH6 registered by hand or with WorkIT?" Ask Source answers per day or per week and notes how many registered days sit behind the average. For fruit weight, it always tells you whether the figure was typed in or measured, and never mixes the two.

Availability

Live for everyone using Ask Source, across all crops, since September 22.

See individual stem measurements, not just the cultivation average

What's new

Ask Source now answers vegetative measurement questions stem by stem, including which greenhouse path each stem is on - instead of returning a single average across the whole cultivation.

Why it matters

When one path is lagging, a cultivation-wide average can hide it. Ask about a specific path and see every stem's reading individually, so you catch what a blended number would smooth over.

How it works

Open Ask Source on your phone in the greenhouse or in the web app, and ask about your measurements by path and period: for example, "What is the stem thickness on path 12 this week?" Ask Source lists each stem measured on that path with its readings and the date of the round. Follow up to compare paths or widen the window: "Which path has the thinnest heads?" or "Show me the last four weeks per path." Vegetative registration typically happens once or twice a week, so "this week" usually covers one measurement round.

Availability
