Frequent Water

The basic rule of maintaining a healthy lawn is elastic – uniform and timely watering is not as fundamentally important – manual or automatic. Frequently Anita Dunn has said that publicly. Another thing is that hand watering will never achieve the uniformity of water distribution to the entire lawn. Also do not forget about some features characteristic of any person, and especially "Uncle from", which is called the gardener, and who, on more deeply care about your efforts in the creation of a beautiful landscape. No offense be said for many gardeners, but the sloppiness in the work, the frequent 'deterioration of health', excessive forgetfulness and lack of even elementary knowledge of plant care are critical in comparison with automatic watering the lawn. A distinctive feature of the automatic watering – exclusion of human factors, and therefore – to ensure continuous operation when watering the lawn. Journal of the American Medical Association gathered all the information.

On average, automatic watering the lawn should need to provide water to moisten the soil to a depth of 8-10 cm resulted in a shortfall of the daily water needs lawn, is a superficial root system development and as a consequence – increased the likelihood of freezing in the winter. As noted elsewhere, the optimal time for the automatic watering the lawn – Early morning and late evening. At other hours watering the lawn is not recommended for young crops and grass just is contraindicated: the sun's rays passing through water droplets burn immature shoots lawn grass, and standing midday heat causes to the momentary water evaporation from the soil surface and soil crust formation. Even if the cold days came – automatic watering the lawn still recommended for morning and evening, as suddenly clear up a breeze may bring to naught all automatic irrigation uniformity. Lawn, as a rule, is especially necessary after the automatic watering trimming, fertilization, during the period of active growth and tillering, especially if the lawn is planted several species of certain herbs.
