New seed

Troy’s method above is the simplest.

But if you want to do it with only one schedule, I suggest this:

I think there is a limit to the number of schedules you can have, so Linn’s method may be necessary if you have maxed out the number of schedules. It may be a bit complicated to understand, but once you have it setup, you’re good to go from now on.

Unlike most, I don’t put down mulch on top of the seed. Therefore I have to water more frequently (but shorter duration) to keep the seed moist until it germinates. So my schedule waters every hour for two minutes. It starts at 6 am and ends at 7 pm. The end time is determined by the start time plus the total duration, taking into consideration the number of zones you have.
