Dreaming of a vibrant, green lawn? You might be overwatering, or worse, watering at the wrong time! Knowing the best time to water your grass is crucial for a healthy, thriving lawn. Forget those midday sprinkles – they're mostly lost to evaporation!
The absolute best time to water your grass is in the early morning, between 6:00 AM and 10:00 AM. Why? The temperatures are cooler, and the wind is usually calmer, allowing the water to soak deeply into the soil before it evaporates. This encourages deep root growth, making your lawn more drought-resistant and resilient.
Avoid watering in the late afternoon or evening. Wet grass overnight creates the perfect breeding ground for fungal diseases. So, set your sprinklers for the early bird special and watch your lawn flourish! Consistent, deep watering less frequently is far more effective than frequent, shallow watering.
