HA notification Loop

Hello,

I´m new to HA and have been struggling over this problem for a few days now.

Trying to notify myself over Google Hangouts if my Plants need anything. Notification works and the text is OK. Only problem is I receive tons of messages like if it was in a notification loop. Here is the configuration:

    notify:
  - platform: xmpp
    name: me_hangouts
    sender: !secret xmpp_username
    password: !secret xmpp_password
    recipient: !secret haraldmilz_jid

crassula_arborescens_willd:
    name: Crassula Arborescens Willd Alerting.
    entity_id: plant.crassula_arborescens_willd
    state: problem
    repeat: 5
    can_acknowledge: true
    skip_first: true
    message: "Pflanze {{ state_attr('plant.crassula_arborescens_willd', 'friendly_name') }} braucht etwas: ({{ state_attr('plant.crassula_arborescens_willd', 'problem') }})"
    done_message: "Planze {{ state_attr('plant.crassula_arborescens_willd', 'friendly_name') }} ist nun Okay."
    notifiers:
        - me_hangouts

Here is the logfile:

it just goes on like this…

Any ideas why it´s looping??

Thank you for your efforts!

Reconfiguring tzdata fixed the issue. Thank you to @chags @axel50397 for your help :slight_smile:
