Watering Tips

On established lawns, water at mid-morning, one inch per week during the height of the growing season.  If your lawn is healthy, allow the soil to dry out between watering.  Watering too heavily may encourage disease while light, frequent waterings often result in shallow roots and weak turf.  For newly established lawns, more frequent watering becomes necessary.  Turf aerification will greatly enhance the efficient use of water.
