Opinions on setting up a slightly mixed vegetation zone

@mckynzee Sure, if you have folks in my area I’d love more options. I don’t think I’ll need to fix that zone in the short term, but I’d like to find some folks with more irrigation know-how. I have folks who winterize and open up for me, but I don’t feel they care that much about what the system is doing compared to me.

@plainsane Yeah, moss is the problem in that area of my lawn. I’m probably going to put down moss treatment in those areas when I do the next weed and feed. I also put in a request with my county and the local USDA cooperative extension to do soil testing and get recommendations. We bought the house last year and it was rented out for years before that. So grass was mowed (too short and filled with weeds) but I’m sure it wasn’t watered or fertilized. It looks … not like what you see in Rachio commercials at this point. I’ve gotten the weeds pushed back, but there are bare spots to fill, moss to drive back and much to be done. I figure I’ll start watering and see how it goes. With the Rachio I now have every possible adjustment under the sun. An improvement over “run it manually because the old controller couldn’t even keep the time right”. I will look for your suggestions the next time I’m at the depot. This drip zone was put in a decade ago by the original owner when this hill had some annuals and new scrubs planted (to prevent erosion of the hill). Today the leak is inside a 25ft arborvitae so things have grown there a bit :).
