I have a drip system on a steep slope. After some minutes there’s runoff, and in the morning wet areas extending down the slope from the plants the system is trying to water.
Why does Rachio prevent my use of cycle and soak?
How can I program the app to do what my slope needs?
@Toolworker - just change the sprinkler type to a non-drip system. This will work if you’re using a Fixed type schedule. If you’re using a Flex Daily schedule other values will have to be changed to get the watering correct for the moisture table.
@DLane Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I’m using Flex Daily, and hoping that someone who knows the system can help me out with instructions on selecting the sprinkler type and programming other values to get the watering back to what it was under drip.
@Toolworker - see if this helps → Spreadsheet for various calculations - #2 by franz
