@mikewhitton, I would consider editing your Allowed depletion if you haven’t already. It defaults to 50%, but for your gardens, you might be better off reducing it to 20-40%. Your watering durations will decrease, but the frequency will increase. Another option for “emergency waterings” is to empty the zone’s moisture level as a manual watering will be factored into your moisture level calculations – see the video at the bottom of this support article for details on how to empty the moisture level.
