CREATING A WATERING SCHEDULE ...................................................................................

For most consumers, it is much easier to plan your specific watering

schedule onto paper before actually programming the information into

the controller. It’s also handy to have a written record of your

programming information for easy reference.

There are some guidelines that should be followed when determining

when and how long to water. These factors are the soil type, the part

of the landscape being watered, weather conditions, and the types

of sprinklers being used. Since there are so many different variables

that can determine your individual watering schedule, it is impossible

to give an exact schedule to follow. However, we have included some

guidelines to help you get started.

HOW TO FILL OUT THE WATERING SCHEDULE FORM

Program Start Times – Indicate the time of day that the program will

begin. Each program can have 1 to 4 start times. However, one start

time can run an entire program.

Station Run Time – Indicate the run time (1 minute to 4 hours)

for each station. Write “OFF” for any station that you do not want to

operate in the program.

Keep this schedule in a safe place for quick reference later, rather than

scrolling through program information on the controller.

Be sure to use a pencil when filling out this form. By using the

included example and the information below, you should have all the

information you need to construct your personal water schedule.

Station Number and Location – Identify the station number, location

and the type of plant that is being watered.

Watering Day – Identify whether you want to use a calendar day or

an interval day schedule. For a calendar day schedule circle the day of

the week in which watering is desired. For an interval day schedule,

simply set the corresponding number of days.

It is usually good to water one or two hours before

sunrise. Water pressure will be at optimum levels during

the early morning and the water can soak into the roots

of the plants while evaporation is minimal. For most

plants, watering during midday or in the evening may

cause plant damage or possibly mildew.

Keep an eye out for evidence of under- or over-water-

ing. Over-watering is most commonly indicated by pools

of water that take a long time to soak in or evaporate,

while under-watered landscapes will show signs of

discoloring and dryness. Make programming changes

immediately when evidence is present.
