> If you have a task that runs every week with `days_ago(1)`, then at the time it would kick off the `start_date` will be yesterday morning but the `execution_date` will be a week ago. Therefore the dag will not be started as `start_date > execution_date`. > > I think you should use static dates for `start_date` at whatever level you set them. I think that if you're setting `start_date` at the task level, it should be because some tasks actually have different times you want them to start from one another, but that's a much less strongly held opinion.
