How to Water Your Lawn for the Best Results
- Watering before 10 AM is the best time to water!
- If you have to water in the evening, aim to water between 4 PM and 6 PM.
- If your lawn appears dull, it’s communicating to you that it needs water.
- Most lawns need 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week (either from rain or watering).
- Measure your water! Place bowls around your yard and water your lawn, next measure how long it takes you to collect 1 to 1.5 inches of water. This will give you your average watering time.
- It’s best to water in one single watering or two shorter waterings per week.
- Don’t overwater! If you notice puddling occurring, water in shorter cycles to allow time for lawn absorption.
- Set it and forget it by investing in a water timer!
- Invest in a professional irrigation system – providing maximum results!
