my system is set for 12 minutes/ twice per week now, when it gets real warm i go to 12 minutes 3 times per week. Our lawn is beautiful. You are watering way too much at 25 minutes. Also i disconnected the wire that automatically increases your watering time settings. I control how long to water. My rain sensor is still connected. Cut back your minutes to 12 or 15 at the most. We also water at 2 oclock in the morning.
Good luck
