et schedule is crazy

MICA

guys, have you ever tried the et schedule? it' s insane...
I have a loblolly pine in my backyard since I was 7, the last 40 years, I watered it for 30 minutes everyday, no more than 45. Guess how long this schedule recommends for me, four hours!!! four hours, man! No joking.

240 minutes, I do wanna a pool, but...
And guess how long for the Juniperus.

I usually give it 10, now it's 5 times more, can you believe it? Totally insane..
I really need an answer here or I will call them directly

Paimon

4 hours, that's a lot of water

MICA

Paimon a lot monry too

cheems

the watering duration was generated based on your zone settings, go to zone menu and check your zone setting

MICA

cheems ok, I will attach the screenshot, what wrong setting would lead to four, god

Zerr

ridiculous, it's good I never try it

MICA

here you go, the zone settings and the advanced

cheems

MICA hey man, you definitely joke me around. I just tried the same zone setting and the system gave me 2 hours. what heck

cheems

I mean you gatto check yourself, i don't know what kind of soil you have, I don't know how long your tree would be exposed, the spray type, slope...That's your job

Hamilton

oh, I have so much fun watching this

MICA

I did change the sprinkler type from emitter to bubbler, and now it's 2 hours. But it's still too much

MICA

I made it to water any days, my house gonna be flooded

habib

MICA your house won't get flooded, calm down.
There are two ways of watering, one is frequent but with a short watering duration; the other is with a long watering duration but with a low watering frequency. Obviously, your previous watering method belongs to the former, but this way of watering is not conducive to the growth of plants, especially for roots. The deeper the roots, the more drought-tolerant the vegetation usually is, and the more vigorous it grows. I guess this is why imolaza recommends such a long watering time for you.

cheems

you don't get it, man.

MICA

habib That's impressive, thanks for your explanation. So I will just change the interval, like once a week?

habib

emmm, that's quite another thing...

Elmo

I have the same question, the watering length is much longer than I used to do, but it still recommends "any days", why?

habib

it's a little different in the et schedule and the fixed schedule, the interval.
In a fixed schedule, you set it to run every day, the schedule would run every day.
But in an et schedule, you set it to run any days, which means that there is a possibility of running every day, but it does not necessarily run.

MICA

habib I get confused

Elmo

MICA so do I.
