As the summer heat arrives, providing adequate water to your lawn is crucial to prevent heat stress. Watering is best done in the early morning to minimize evaporation and reduce the risk of fungal diseases. Avoid watering at noon or when the sun is strong because water droplets on the grass blades act like magnifying glasses, concentrating the intense sunlight and potentially scorching the grass. In the evening, excessive watering can promote mold growth and make the grass susceptible to disease.
There are various types of sprinkler heads available, including stationary, oscillating, rotating, and drip irrigation systems. Soaker hoses can be laid out in specific patterns to ensure even coverage.
When choosing a product for efficient and even watering, consider factors such as the size and layout of your lawn or garden, the types of plants you have, your water source and pressure, and your budget. Additionally, regularly maintaining and adjusting your watering system as needed will help ensure optimal performance and water efficiency.
