Watering Tips

Most lawns require a minimum of 5 cm (2") of water per week during the summer.

• Try to water early in the morning to prevent evaporation.
• Under dry conditions, water heavily once a week as opposed to a daily sprinkling (daily sprinkling encourages shallow roots, which will increase the chance of burning during hot spells).
• Try to wet the entire root zone.
• Move sprinkler around your yard for even irrigation of your lawn.
• Too much watering can quickly leach nutrients from around the root zone, and can make the grass grow faster and need more frequent mowing.
