The app determines the soil moisture from the data you’ve input into the zone information, as well as the weather details. The moisture balance updates on a nightly basis and makes adjustments based on the amount of precipitation, irrigation, and evaporation rates.

When initially setting up a zone, the soil moisture should be left at the default level unless there’s been a recent watering.

We do not recommend changing the soil moisture percentage manually, as that can change the smart watering programs and how they learn.
