How do I get a script to run after start up in LibreElec?

1st Official Post

    I am using the same box to water the garden and I need to do a check after start up.

    How do I get a script to run after start up?

    I can start the script at a particular time eg 3:20 pm but I can not work out how to start it after boot up.

    I have edited crontab and used the @boot command

    crontab -e

    @reboot /path-to-script/script (or command)

    20 15 * * * /storage/Daves-script/script

    The script does not run at reboot but does at 3:20 pm

    Any help would be welcomed

    )&

    note : must have " & "
