What is the difference between Smart Watering and other advanced details such as Weather Based Skips?
The difference between enabling Smart Watering versus other advanced details such as Weather Based Skips, Seasonal Adjustments, and Cycle/Soak when creating a Schedule is that Smart Watering is an accumulation of these details, based on evapotranspiration (ET) principles, which are a function of weather conditions and plant type.
Smart Watering automatically reduces the watering durations on days when less water is needed, typically during the cooler months or when rainfall is plentiful. To use Smart Watering to the best of it's abilities, we recommend ensuring your Zone's Details are as accurate as possible.
