Plant status unknown after upgrade to HA 2023.8

[morris2009]

Hi, It appears that the main status of a plant is nog changing from unknown to any state anymore after upgrading home assistant to 2023.8 Each of the sensors of the plant do show the correct value. So they are taken correctly from the underlying physical sensors. The attributes for the main sensor for plant monitor, ing case plant.alocasia are Unknown (except species and species original) and don't get updated. The entities below are all correct and updated.

Any idea where to start looking what is wrong? Or is this a bug introduced by 2023.8?

It works fine with 2023.8 here. Do you have anything in your logs? What version are your running? Could you enable debug logging and see what happens?

[morris2009]

Not really sure what i should make of the logging. I enabled debug logging, restarted HA and ended debug:

Looks like a problem with your humidity sensor.

Try to use the "replace sensor" service call to correct it.

[morris2009]

Ah. I had all the humidity sensors disabled because my xiaomi plant sensor doesn't measure humidity. After enabling the sensor in the entity settings screen the plant monitor gave an OK. Tnx!
