Workarounds Described

• bought soil moisture sensors but doesn't know what target level to use
• runs sprinklers 40 min 3x/week at 5:30am without knowing if that's optimal
• plans to send soil samples to university for lab analysis

Implied Software Gaps

• App that interprets sensor data and provides actionable target moisture levels
• Irrigation scheduling tool that adjusts runtime based on real-time soil moisture and weather forecast
• Central dashboard to monitor multiple zones (lawn, garden, shrubs) with custom targets per plant type
