And yes, I found a Rachio connected weather station in my Village, about 0.5 miles away.
Is 50% depletion too much for grass? That is what my front and side yards are set for. But they are the problem zones... Would raising that % increase the frequency of the watering?
Would increasing the Crop Coefficient help?
Thanks in advance!

Any Day was one of the options as you were setting up Daily Flex. You'll need to delete your current Daily Flex schedule and start over in order to see it. Optionally, go to the Schedules tab and select the arrow to the right of the schedule. Scroll down to Interval and select all days of the week by checking each one.
Once you set up the schedule, let Rachio set the minutes. Once you change them, Rachio leaves them alone.
50% depletion is fine. Crop Coefficient if set on Dynamic should be 70%.
Regarding the 8-9 days between watering, it can and will change. The calendar is what it is thinking as of today, tomorrow or the next day you'll probably see a change. It is looking at forecasted weather (with a good % chance of rain in the next 4 days) and estimating the loss of moisture due to evapotranspiration. As live data is obtained, it will recalculate.
What is the % Moisture in each zone?
What Village are you in?
