[REQ] Best irrigation start time according irrigation duration and weather condition #474
Comments
interesting - how would you imagine this would work? |
Please find what ChatGPT gives to me : There isn't a single, universal mathematical formula to calculate the optimal watering time for plants, as this depends on many factors such as environmental conditions, plant type, soil characteristics, and local climate. However, a more scientific approach can be used to estimate the optimal watering time by considering key parameters. Variables to Consider: Adjustments and Complexity: I read also that the water can be made between Point de Rosée and the beginning of the sunshine. It could be interesting to see if the formulat gives by ChatGPT is somewhere around. |
wow - there is a lot to consider here. Good research by the way. Thank you and chatGPT too. What I do is this.

All of the research I have done indicates that you are better to water in the morning. I am currently looking at the total requirement and have a condition to use the watering time value as is or divide it up into two or three equals segments with a soak-in time in between. With the new soil saturation parameter included, it should be able to fairly easily incorporate that into the logic so that it does not water beyond the saturation point of the soil without introducing some, soak in times. |
I really appreciate the possibility to define the best irrigation duration. Thank you very much for your work !
As I'm a novice, I have another need to cover. At what time I need to start irrigation and do I need to split it during the day in case of specific weather condition (extreme temperatures) ?
This would be a great addon if you can add also a smart feature for that.
Thanks in advance for your investigation.
