What is the watering cycle in a controller?

The controller operates the valves in order, one at a time. In other words, one station would water completely before another station would turn on. This is called a watering cycle.

Does water drain through the lowest head of a sprinkler system?

No. Water will drain through the lowest head until the pipe empties. If the seepage does not stop, the problem is with the valve that controls that sprinkler zone. The problem could be as simple as a small piece of debris inside the valve. Warning: Shut off the water supply before disassembling the valve.

Do lawn stations have to be assigned to a different program than shrubs?

Many yards have plants with different water requirements (i.e., lawns that require everyday watering, shrubs that only require watering every other day, etc.). Therefore, the lawn stations can be assigned to a different program than the shrubs.
