Total Run Minutes is total run time required to bring moisture from the indicated moisture threshold
to Field Capacity

Soak Time Run Maximum is minutes allowed before surface accumulation causes runoff
•
Soak Time Soak Minimum is minutes of soaking required to absorb surface accumulation.

Match your zone sprinkler head type and Field Capacity. If your pop-up sprayer zone has 35% Field
Capacity and your moisture threshold is 28%, your total run time is 23 minutes. Set your controller to
irrigate a total of 23 minutes, using a soak cycle with a maximum ‘on’ time of 7 minutes and a minimum
‘soak’ time of 25 minutes.
