Question about water_adjustment about irrigation-v5 HOT 5 CLOSED

Yes that is correct, I will adjust the documentation so both options match.

Hi, the factor is arbitrary, the 10mm works for me, as it just reduces the watering it does not cut stop it.

There is no particular science behind this, my advice would be to try this as it is and adjust the mm if it is to much or to little.

Hi @petergridge
For water adjustment, what is your template code from OpenWeatherMapHistory ?
There's is 2 examples on the githhub page for 10mm of rain.
Is these 10mm for each complete cycle ? or for each day ?

For grass I read the amount of water needed is about 30 or 40mm weekly. Excact ?
So it's around 5mm daily and so on 15mm each 3 days.

Can you explain their factor example. I'm not sure to understand properly. Why 0.5, 0.25 or /10 fir forecast2rain

{{ 
  [(10 
  - day0rain 
  - day1rain*0.5
  - day2rain*0.25
  - forecast1rain*forecast1pop*0.5
  - forecast2rain*forecast2pop*0.25)/10
