Is Rachio right for me? Las Vegas resident, drip line, zero gardening experience

Hi @FizzaFarian. Congrats on having your installation complete. Have you seen this drip calculator ? It is intended to walk you through the process of pretty much your situation.

I encourage you to walk through it step-by-step. Don’t skip anything and you should end up having a lot of your questions answered. The included link to ‘Water-Use-It-Wisely’, for example, has charts for estimating root depth based on canopy size, and also tells you how many gallons to deliver. There is also a link to show you how to go beyond picking just your soil type, and getting to an ‘Available Water’ number that goes into your settings. After those two steps the calculator gives you the values to use in your settings. Take a look, and let us know what follow-up questions you might have.
