Spring– Generally, irrigation is not needed in the spring. Mother Nature should provide all the water your lawn will need to grow and stay healthy. 

Summer-We recommend watering your lawn only as necessary to stay green and healthy. Depending on the amount of rainfall, watering once or twice per week in June and two to three times per week in July and August should be sufficient. The best time to water is between 5:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. Water each area of your lawn for 30-40 minutes.  Bluegrass lawns will require more water than fescue lawns. 

It is best to water longer and less often. Frequent, light watering will weaken a lawn and increase the risk of turf disease and fungus. 

Fall – Unless we are seeding your lawn, watering once or twice per week in early September should be sufficient.
