Even with this current heat, September is the time our days get shorter. This means it’s time to take a look at adjusting your sprinklers for fall weather when plants need less water.
If your controller has a seasonal adjustment feature, dial it down to around 60% of your peak summer setting rather than reprogramming every zone manually. If you have a smart weather-based controller, ensure your Wi-Fi is active or on-site sensors are synced. It should handle these seasonal adjustments automatically.
