Watering might seem simple, but doing it right makes all the difference between a struggling lawn and a thriving one.
1. Water Early
The best time to water is between 5 a.m. and 9 a.m. Cooler air and lower wind mean more water reaches your soil instead of evaporating.
2. Go Deep, Not Often
Deep watering encourages roots to grow downward, helping grass survive heat and drought. Light, frequent watering causes shallow roots that dry out quickly.
3. Watch for Overwatering
Puddles, mushrooms, or spongy soil are signs you’re watering too much. Excess moisture invites fungus and root rot.
4. Adapt for Weather
Adjust watering schedules for rain, humidity, and temperature changes. Smart controllers make this easy with built-in weather sensors.
5. Maintain Your System
Clogged or misaligned sprinkler heads lead to wasted water and patchy coverage. Inspect and clean them regularly.
