After making sure it worked over time, I upgraded using an expansion kit including drip sickles with output control and more cross valves. It took me a few weeks to figure what settings worked best for my own needs which was 26 seconds every two days. Use a clear container to verify that water is being pulled consistently. Also, before going on vacation, experiment over several days to make sure it is not watering too much or too little. Highly recommend testing in a sink or bathtub to verify all drips are working.

Make sure the programmable unit and plants are above the water source, to avoid gravity siphoning water into your plants. To make it easy on your fingers, boil some hot water and use that to soften the hose when attaching the valves.
