- When is the right time to water your garden? In just five short and easy to understand videos, we show you how to install your new GARDENA smart Irrigation Control Set so that when it's the right time to water your garden, it is also done by just lifting one finger. In the second video, we set up the GARDENA Valve Box V3 but as it is so smart, you can also use your already existing one.
The GARDENA smart Irrigation Control allows flexible control of up to six separate irrigation zones with the system’s smart App, for example in the GARDENA Micro-Drip-System or Sprinklersystem. The system enables individual watering intervals to be regulated to also ensure optimal irrigation of planting areas that have different water requirements. In connection with a GARDENA smart Sensor, unnecessary watering is prevented for optimal water management. The smart Gateway ensures central networking, which creates an Internet connection using an existing router. In this way, it acts as the core of the smart system to permit cable-free network communications between all GARDENA smart system devices in the garden and the GARDENA smart App.

"simple set up" :D
I have not received the cover to protect wire fittings which goes on top of the wires that you can screw on with the v3 box I just bought. I am in Germany. should this be included?
@GardenaWorldwide Hello, the middle valve is always leaking (i have two boxes connected) when i start the water. Any idea why? I try to run 2-3 lines together but still the same issue..so it is not the pressure. Thank you

What if you need even more zones/valves? I have a huge garden and i like your system but i think in the future i will need more then 6 valves.
It is not possible to have more than 6 valves / zones currrently.
I'm assuming the power cable between the boxes and from box-connection junction is weather proof considering you're placing it completely out in the open free for all elements to interact with it?
Hello Andreas,
Yes, but please note the following:
Mount the irrigation controller in a weather-protected location. Protect the power supply from moisture and direct sunlight when plugged in.
Best regards

@@GardenaWorldwide Thank you for a really quick reply. I will do that.
A follow-up question. In the V3-boxex, two of my six irrigation valve units are leaking and are filling the boxes with water. They are both the middle connections between the valve and the water inlet connection. I've disassembled everything, moved things around and I still face the same issues. Any suggestions here, please?

What about haveing the system outside during winter?
The GARDENA smart Irrigation Control should not be placed outside in winter.
Thats another good one.
Where is the “short piece of cable”??? I can’t see anything that connects each valve to the switch box???
Hello Stephen,
thank you very much for your question.
The short piece of cables are directly connected to the valves.
Best regards
GARDENA Service
@@GardenaWorldwide No...they are not. I bought three of them. All the same. no cables on the device.
Id prefere to mount the box inside the house. Is this possible?
We recommend to install it outside. However, it should be protected against sun and rain.
@@GardenaWorldwide thanks
@@GardenaWorldwide another one... does Gardena have enough resources to manage customer service support? I have requested irrigation layout assistance month ago and it seem to me it has been ignored? I had to contact UK Representative, on the other side of my universe to get a project feedback while Poland sits tight - due to the workload, I have been referred to another retailer, idea by Gardena. It seem you guys simply struggle dont with man power to execute projects? Kind a rough environment. I had to go to hunter for new project and if they wont come back I will go to Rain Bird? Rainbow? Mercy.
i would rather pay more to receive it already pre-installed like this before i even open the box. such a waste of time
