Smart and Effective Ways to Water Your Lawn
One of the most important parts of lawn care is proper watering. It helps ensure your lawn remains in tip-top shape. Lawn watering may be simple, but a few tricks and tips can still help you save time and money. Here are our best tips on how to water your lawn.
Water in the Fall
Your lawn will still require water in the autumn months. When the leaves start to change and the growing season winds down, your grass won’t grow as much as it once did. Fall watering will help your lawn recover from the scorching summer months and gain strength for the oncoming winter months. So don’t put your hoses or sprinklers away just yet, not until the ground has started to freeze.
Purchase an Impact Sprinkler on a Tripod
These are even more versatile if you purchase one that is on a tripod. These are great for larger areas due to the fact the extra height will increase the distance the sprinkler sprays water. There are a few other benefits, such as being able to adjust the spray pattern with less stooping, and you will be able to direct the spray over bushes and flower gardens. And finally, the adjustable legs will allow you to level the sprinkler out on uneven ground.
Water Grass Seed Carefully
Seeding is an excellent way to grow a lawn or fill in a bare spot. The key to success though is performing the proper watering regime. To germinate, establish roots, and grow, seeds have to remain damp. Once the seeds start to sprout, a dry period of even a day could kill them, meaning you will have to start from scratch again.
