In accordance with the organic producer’s experience, a
minimum value of 5% VWC for the soil was established as
the moisture threshold level and 30 °C as the temperature
threshold level for the automated irrigation modes (IA-3 and
IA-4, respectively). Initially, the scheduled irrigation (IA-2)
of 35 min/week was used during the first six weeks. After
that, the scheduled irrigation was set at 35 min three times
per week. Sage cultivation finalized after 136 days.
