Automation - delayed action after activation

Hello,

i want to do an automatic tinker for my greenhouse.

The logic should look like this:
If the temperature sensor Temp> 30 ° for 30 minutes then watering should start in the evening at a specified time (20:00).

What I can’t manage is that if the temperature is exceeded, they wait until it is 8:00 p.m.
The trigger is not a problem.

greetings
Gerald

Use an input_boolean helper and two automations.

First automation turns the input_boolean on if the temperature exceeds 30°C for 30 minutes.

Second automation does the watering at 20:00 on the condition that the input_boolean is on, and also turns it off ready for the next day.
