HomeKit Weekly: Eve Aqua is still the easiest way to automate outdoor watering

It’s that time of year again. The sun is shining, grass is growing, and flowers are blooming. Summer weather is here. Here in the South, we’ll go from weeks of rain to stretches where it’s 95 degrees with no clouds in sight. I’ve never wanted to mess with a professionally installed irrigation system. Too much maintenance. That’s why I’ve continued using the Eve Aqua to handle outdoor watering without digging a hole or hiring anyone to install it. HomeKit Weekly is a series focused on smart home accessories, automation tips and tricks, and everything to do with Apple’s smart home framework. This product has saved me more than once, especially when we’ve gone out of town during peak summer heat. A few days without rain can stress out plants, and when temps stay high, your grass doesn’t stand a chance. I’ve kept everything alive and growing with Eve Aqua, even when no one’s home to water. How does it work? Eve Aqua sits between your outdoor faucet and your garden
