Three files have been updated. Please let me know if you find any problems.
garden_globals_cycle1.yaml
garden_globals_cycle2.yaml
garden_globals_cycle3.yaml
Also, @athan and anyone using his fork (or their own version) with more than 8 zones be aware that I had to create a new group for each cycle. You will have to add to the groups as appropriate for your extra zones.
Thank you for the quick response I will give that a try tonight.
anyone who has configured smartweather who can help me do it?
Thanks for the heads up @klogg 
For anyone that is interesting, I have incorporate the changes to my 16 zones branch.
Will load and report any issues I find (if any).
Just a quick warning… there will be another update either today or tomorrow that will reduce the amount of changes needed for extra zones.
I learnt today that groups can be dynamically created1 so I can template the groups to include all zones irrespective of how many there are.
1 After all this time there are still new things hidden in the cracks to learn about HA - It’s not a well documented feature (if at all).
As I type this though I just thought… do you have leading zeros on your zone numbers less than ten? If you do it might be a small problem.
Nope. No leading zeros are needed
Ok…
I will put one new file and four updated files up now.
New file - I decided to keep all the dynamically created groups in one place
garden_globals_groups.yaml
Four updated files
garden_globals_cycle1/2/3.yaml and
garden_globals_zone_days.yaml
I’m going to be honest and say this is not well tested but the changes are pretty small, the groups all get created correctly in my HA. I think the biggest risk is of typos as there was a fair bit of copy and pasting needed!
Please makes sure you can fall back if necessary.
As usual let me know how it goes… 
Hi klogg i loaded the new files up and encountered a problem (see below), i decided too trouble shoot and reverted back to my back up file, then loaded the new files on one by one, the 'garden_globals_groups.yaml and the four updated files 'garden_globals_cycle1/2/3.yaml loaded fine with no errors in the ui, but once i load the garden_globals_zone_days.yaml is where i encounter the issue, i’ve no ideas what is happening but thought i would let you know.
And the HA logs are stating …
ERROR (MainThread [homeassistant.components.automation.irrigation_create_groups] irrigation_create_groups: Error executing script. Service not found for call_service at pos 1: Unable to find service group/set
and
ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.automation.irrigation_create_groups] While executing automation automation.irrigation_create_groups
That’s strange…
It seems to be saying the service group.set doesn’t exist.
Can you go to the Services tab in Developer Tools and see if you have that service available. Also copy the first template in the automation irrigation_create_groups into the Template Editor and check it resolves to a list of entities.
Also, did you do a full restart of HA or did you reload certain components?
I did a full reset from the HA Server Controls panel and no difference, theres was no service referring to service group.setin the Server tab, and a bunch of entities appeared when i pasted the automation into the Template Editor with a few referring the the irrigation etc.
Then i thought lets reboot the vm as i’m running proxmox and voila, happy chappy and thanks for those pointers they may come in use for other things as well.
Well that was strange…
Glad it’s working though 
Yep it sure was but all seems good to go now, been playing around with the rain integration for weather sensors, as i got a cheap weather station (Netatmo) from a well known auction site.
I copied the code in the thread written earlier on about making a binary sensor for yesterday, and time update changes, it seems to populate ok, now i’m playing around to see which entity plays well with the rain graph yaml to make it look good, and display correctly in the graph.
Hi Klogg et al,
I have been using Version 1 for a LONG time. I actually ended up re-writing a bunch of the backend in Node Red (just so that there was very little duplication across such a large environment). Now it controls 50+ valves across 30 zones with 180 different cycle runs (hehehe). Yes … it does a lot but it has been ROCK SOLID for a long.
After taking the summer off I come back to find there is a Version #2 with many of the enhancements I was looking at building into our system!! Yippy!
So I fired up a virtualbox, installed everything, followed the various guides (bbogdanmircea & Koggy prerequisits) out there but for some reason I can’t seem to get anything to come up. So what do I mean by this, my screen is completely blank.
After looking at the log file I am getting the following error (s):
2020-09-23 18:20:50 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.automation.irrigation_master_control_switch_off] Irrigation Master Control Switch OFF: Error executing script. Service not fou

PS - I have download the most recent code today.
Can you point me in the right direction where I might try and diagnose what is causing the issue?
Thanks. I look forward to playing with the new version and seeing how it works :).

Got it working!! Nice. Lots going on to get it functional 
Hi,
I have some bugs in Manual mode when I click Stop between proccesing. Something about websocket.

My recorder is turned on.
These errors from older version (HA 0.114.3, HassOS 4.12) to this (HA 0.115.2, HassOS 4.13)
Pls some advice. Tks
Hi. Program use to work for some while but now I often find it in hanging condition. Anything I can do?
Update
It’s reverted back to a bug again, tried a new install as well as my nearly created back up that was working yesterday to no avail, so going back to my working backup for now.
it seems to keep pointing to the groups but not sure what’s happening myself.
Nope no where to be seen, nothing named groups in the services tab …strange ?
