Set Watering Start Times
Start times are the time(s) of day that the program begins.
You can assign up to eight Start Times to a single program. Multiple
Start Times allow you to run a program more than once on each day.
For example, if you’re growing new lawn seed, you may want to water
several times a day to keep the seedbed or top dressing damp.
