Tips and Tricks for Lawn Mowing and Watering

 

There are important factors to consider when it comes to lawn mowing and irrigation including irrigation equipment, maintenance schedule, climate, temperature, temperature, wind, grass types, soil type, and humidity. While it is true that there are a lot of online resources available right now, experience is still the best mentor in fully understanding the concepts and principles of proper lawn mowing and irrigation. Many people have a lot of questions about lawn mowing and irrigation, but all questions can be answered once there is a full understanding of the lawn needs, how the irrigation system works, the weather or climatic conditions in the area, and the lawn response to weather, water, fertilizer, and drainage.

 

One of the most common questions is, "How often do we need to water the lawn?". In a logical sense, a lawn requires watering when it shows signs of thirst. If ever your grass does not bounce back, the soil starts to dry out, the grass appears blue-green, or footprints show, your lawn requires watering. The fact is grasses don't really need daily watering. It is a bad practice just merely turning on the water sprinklers to supply some water to your lawn, it is best to provide a thorough soaking to your lawn. When the grass starts to wilt or you notice that the soil is dry, then your lawn is thirsty. Flipping on the irrigation system or watering your lawn is needed if you notice your grass looks tired or gets limp. Conduct a "soil moisture test". This is done by pushing a bladed tool or knife five to six inches, and it's time to water your lawn if it comes out shiny and dry. It is important to water your lawn thoroughly until the soil is soaked 4 to 6 inches deep into the ground. Hire the best Chappaqua irrigation installation here.

 

By providing sprinklers, the root system only develops near the surface. Push the roots deeper and develop stronger roots by deep and thorough watering. By having a deeper root system, more nutrients and water are absorbed. Avoid flooding your lawn. Don't apply water too fast so it will not run off the grass. Water your lawn as fast as it can. The length of time a lawn needs to be watered depends on the soil conditions, water, grass type, and the weather. A root system that is deep, about 6 inches or more possesses a stronger foundation.
