Well, here are the details after a couple of days. Happy to report that this was an application bug. I’ve disabled the zone, re-enabled it, changed from trees to annuals, and then back to trees, removed from all schedules, restored advanced settings to default and then re-adjusted to fit reality and then restored to the main flex schedule. Watering time was defined as 3+ hours, as I’ve reported above. I’ve modified it to a lower duration of 75 minutes. Trees in my region in this season require more frequent watering - works best for tropical trees. 75 minutes of watering provides 2.23 cm of water. This is a bit weird, as ~1.8 was set to be 100% moisture needed by the app. So probably less than an hour will bring me from minimum (50% depletion) to 100%. Don’t understand why it was defined as 3+ hours - seems much to long.
Any way, getting back to normal numbers is good!
One recommendation new feature for the app could be a zone reset - clear all value and disable the zone with a press of a button.
