New grass/sod Lawn care

When is the right time to water your lawn?

When would you say is the right time to water your lawn? When it is brown? If it sounds crunchy when you walk on it? If your neighbors offer to pitch in on your water bill? The answer is No to all the questions just asked. If your lawn sounds like any of the lawns just described you have officially waited too long to water your lawn.

Is there such thing as too much water for your Lawn?

Some people have the idea that their Lawn is like a fountain and always needs water sprinkling on it. This too can cause issues. Watering your lawn so much can and will cause your lawn to be water logged which can be just as damaging as not watering your lawn at all.


The best time of day to water your lawn

There are times of the day when your lawn SHOULD NOT be watered. In fact, watering your lawn during the heat of the day will just be wasting your money and not be helping your landscaping efforts. Watering your lawn either in the early morning or in the evening is the very best time to water your grass. At Your local home imporvement store you can find timed sprinkler systems that connect to your hose and will water at the same time every day and the best part of these watering systems, they can be purchased for under $20.00 that beats a several thousand dollar sprinkler set up doesn't it.
