I am trying to get my zone set up to support watering container vegetables. I have set the zone to dynamic monthly. I also converted the GPH of my emitters to nozzle inches/hr and set that plus the areas on advanced settings. Those are the only things I have changed.
Based on a moisture monitor I have installed, the observed percent moisture was too high so I increased the nozzle inches/hr to try and apply less water.
I went back into the app today and found that the Rachio-calculated moisture is 110%, my meter says it’s 90%, and the nozzle inches/hr is set back to where it was before I increased it.
I know that some of the advanced settings are calculated when you have dynamic monthly enabled. Does that include the nozzle inches/hour setting? Is there some other way I should dial-back the amount of watering (like decrease the area) if the observed moisture is measuring too high? Should I turn off dynamic monthly?
My tomatoes are starting to show signs of root rot, so I need to get this sorted right away!
