We live in a desert. Our mesquite trees and cactus need water every 3 weeks to a month. The longest interval is 2 weeks so we always have to do this by hand. Is it possible for you to add choices up to 4 weeks so we don’t forget to do it?

  Still waiting for this for my trees so can water once a month - I am OK with paying the annual subscription of $30 if you add this basic needed feature.

  As an aside, if weather-adaptive watering creates difficulties for implementing once a month watering, it would be fine to only have a fixed amount of time for monthly watering without weather-adaptive modifications.

   

  Currently, I have to set monthly e-mail notifications to water my trees manually, because RainMachine can only water 14 days between cycles.

  I'm genuinely dissapointed that RainMachine has not taken action on this issue despite many requests for years.  RainMachine seems to focus on improving technical IT features like Alexa and similar items, but these may not be important or useful to many users.  Having greater flexibility with watering schedules would help reduce water use in a time of water restrictions as well as making the system more convenient for all.
