    The minimum recurrence length is 10 minutes (this is a limitation in WordPress itself, not the WP Crontrol plugin).

    In addition to this, your website needs to receive traffic in order for cron events to fire. If your site doesn’t receive any traffic, then the cron jobs will run when you visit your own site.
