Water, Water and did I say Water...
Our poor landscapes need water, please don't forget to water. Check your sprinklers and make sure they are working and please water appropriately.
Watering
1. Water before 9:00am only. Daylight watering or night watering will promote fungus and disease.
2. Do not under or over water. Water correctly or do not water at all.
3. Let soil dry 2-3 inches in depth before each watering.
4. Water to 6 inches in depth each time. Light watering can do more damage than good whether by rainfall or by hose.
5 Do not water if there is adequate rainfall. Six inches of depth moisture takes about 1 inch of slow rainfall, not heavy rain. Short heavy rainfalls tend to run off.
6 Average lawns need 1" of water per week. During the heat of the summer this interval may be shortened to every 2-3 days due to evaporation.
