Now we come to the incredibly awful Toro control box. 4 and a half hours and 6 replaced heads later (lot’s of digging), the sprinklers are running well with no geysers or bubbling springs going in the yard. I had a couple of non-functional heads, so I headed to the big-box home store in town, and found some half-sized heads. Every sprinkler head in the yard sits well above ground level (this is just the canister mind you), and when they run, the extension riser pops up another 4 inches.
