Why

Bruce Rodtnick
Updated at 2021-06-26 14:59:00 UTC 

I have a front yard with zoysia grass, about a thousand square feet, no trees. My app keeps telling me that it will water this grass tomorrow. It is obvious that it needs watering, but the next morning I see that it has not been watered and it says I will water it tomorrow. There is no rain forecast, it has been very hot. It Waters the rest of my yard properly, it's just my front yard that it does it like this. Why does it keep changing its mind?

Also this same area, my front yard, has no trees but the app says there are trees on it. And I cannot change it. I would think if this area had trees on it it would be taking much more water and the app would water more. How can I change this on the app?

Zero Readings

One of my whisperers gives a zero reading on all metrics about twice every 24hours. Other times it seems normal. Is it broken?

Able to create zones with Pixie?

Mike Willet
Updated at 2021-06-24 20:47:47 UTC 

I have 8 pixie faucet timers and 4 whisper sensors:

3 for backyard

3 for front yard

1 for drip irrigation in front

1 for drip irrigation in back

I’m trying to assign the 3 front timers in a single zone and sync with 1 whisper sensor. So far, the sensor only seems to sync with 1 timer and each timer shows up as a separate zone.

Also want the same for the back yard. Is this possible?

Can pixie timers be used to create zones?

Can’t Delete Whisper Sensor

Updated at 2021-06-24 20:40:43 UTC 

I added the sensor as a stand alone, then added it to a pixie. Now I can’t figure out how to delete the whisper from the drop down screen. I go into settings and there are no sensors to choose from. Screenshots attached.

Fine-tuning smart watering for rotors

Ken Laberteaux
Updated at 2021-06-22 04:16:23 UTC 

I have a smart zone comprising rotor heads.  As I understand, rotor heads need to be run for longer times than other types of heads because they are only delivering water to one direction at a time (the current direction of the stream of water from the rotor).  Further, the amount of water delivered in a given time depends on how large of an arc the rotor passes through.  For example, if the rotor sweeps through only 180 degrees for 10 minutes, that ground gets 2x the water per unit area than if it runs through 360 degrees for the same 10 min.


So, it seems that, since the choice of rotor head does not include information about the arc it will travel through, there is no way for the smart watering algorithm to know how much water is being delivered per unit area, i.e. a zone with rotors going all 360 degrees is likely under-watering.


I believe this is happening on my lawn, and i would like to make a change in order to increase the time of watering for this zone.


What dials do I have at my disposal to make the smart watering algorithm water this zone for a longer period of time?

Programs that ignore sensors?

Jacques
Updated at 2021-06-20 19:10:17 UTC 
Is it possible to create a program that ignores the data from the whisper sensors? When its above 90, I like to run a 3 minute session on all zones to cool the blades off, but if the moisture is too high it skips those zones. I'm fine with my other programs skipping since they're more about the soil.

I recreantly purchased the netro controller and several times it has gone offline with having to unplug and restart. This seems to only work for a day and then goes offline again. I have rebooted my rooter which is on the same floor as the netro. Any help would be great.

Smart zone predictions?

Sid Smith
Updated at 2021-06-17 12:12:33 UTC 

I am still trying to figure out the rain prediction algorithm. 

I had 1 set of zones schedule to eater at 5 am on the 17th.

This was overridden by the program anticipating rain at 3am on the 18th (according to forcast). Why does it look so far ahead? Does it take into account the current moisture reading? There is an 85° full sun day between these events.

Just bought a home that has Netro however each time the sprinklers turn on they are pointing in different directions then we had them originally set. We end up watering cars and the street more than the lawn. Any suggestions?
