Cycle & Soak

Interestingly a lot of controllers have a "cycle & soak" option but very few people use it because they don't exactly know what it means including irrigation contractors. "Cycle & Soak" is simple....it allows programming of multiple watering times for much shorter periods of time. Thus is cycles and then breaks to allow the water to "soak" into the soil. This is great for areas where water drains off quickly due to soil types or even sloped areas.
