Does anyone know the recommended time intervals for the grassy areas and the plant areas?

I know how to reset the unit, just need the timings.

Thanks!!
Glad the Villages put this subject out here for us to learn a little bit about our irrigation issues so we could see what kind of problems that are out there. As far as the company setting you control box & costing you money, well, that's not very good advertisement for them. My timings are all set on 20 mins. & I have 4 different ones. It would be interesting to see what they did to your control box to have you using more water. Water is expensive enough down here & they keep telling me fresh water is a sacred source of resource. Sorry, I really didn't answer your question exactly like you wanted, but glad you spoke up, thanks!
