💧🍂 Your Lawn Is Slowing Down, But Don't Stop Watering Just Yet!

As temperatures cool across North Texas, our Bermuda, St. Augustine, and Zoysia lawns are beginning to slow their growth as they prepare for winter dormancy.

But slower growth doesn't mean your lawn has stopped needing water!

While your lawn is still actively growing, continue monitoring soil moisture and adjust your watering schedule as temperatures decrease.

🌧️ What about rainfall?

Fall often brings some welcome rain, which can help meet your lawn's watering needs. But when rainfall is lacking, supplemental watering may still be necessary.

Even after your lawn goes dormant, prolonged dry conditions may occasionally require watering to prevent excessive drying. The key is to water only when needed, not maintain your summer schedule.

🌱 Don't Forget About Your Lawn Treatments!

We're also in an important period for pre-emergent w**d control.

These treatments need adequate moisture to activate and establish a barrier in the soil. Without proper watering, their effectiveness can be significantly reduced.

Rainfall can help activate treatments, but when sufficient rain isn't expected, be sure to water them in according to the application instructions.

⏰ When Should You Water?

✅ BEST: Early morning, preferably before 9 AM.

❌ AVOID: Late evening and nighttime watering, which can leave grass blades wet for extended periods and encourage fungal diseases such as large patch (brown patch), particularly in St. Augustine lawns.

❌ AVOID: Overwatering or keeping the soil constantly saturated.

Remember: Your lawn needs less water as temperatures cool, but that doesn't mean it needs no water at all!

🌱💧 IMPORTANT: Watering In Your Lawn Treatments Is Essential!

We're entering one of the most important times of the year for pre-emergent w**d control in North Texas.

Pre-emergent herbicides need adequate moisture to activate and establish a barrier in the soil.

⚠️ Without proper watering, their effectiveness can be significantly reduced!

This is especially important as we work to reduce cool-season w**ds such as annual bluegrass (Poa annua), chickw**d, and other winter w**ds that can become established during the cooler months.

Even though temperatures are cooling, don't assume watering in your lawn treatments is unnecessary.

Our treatments and your watering work together. Both are important!

☀️ Seeing Brown or Dry Areas in Your Lawn? Check This First. 💧

With the extreme North Texas heat, we're seeing more lawns develop dry areas and hot spots.

Before assuming you have a disease, insect problem, or something else going on, turn on the sprinkler zone that covers the area and actually watch it run.

Just because your sprinkler system turns on doesn't mean the water is reaching every part of your lawn.

Look for:

💧 Sprinkler heads that aren't popping up completely
💧 Tall grass blocking the spray
💧 Heads spraying in the wrong direction
💧 Clogged, tilted, or damaged heads
💧 Areas between sprinklers that aren't getting enough coverage

We've seen homeowners who thought they were watering an area regularly, only to discover that the water wasn't actually reaching the grass.

And remember, hot spots are common. Areas near sidewalks, driveways, streets, slopes, and intense afternoon sun can dry out faster and may need additional water.

👉 Your sprinkler controller can tell you the system ran. It can't tell you whether the grass actually received the water.

🌞 The #1 problem we're seeing on North Texas lawns right now is underwatering.

We've had a few rounds of rain recently, but don't let that fool you.

A heavy rain a few weeks ago or a brief shower yesterday isn't enough to carry your lawn through weeks of 90° to 100° temperatures.

Take a few minutes to walk your lawn and look for:

💧 Brown or gray hot spots

👣 Footprints that remain visible after walking across the grass

🌱 Areas drying out faster than the rest of the lawn

One thing many homeowners don't realize is that a lawn already stressed from heat and lack of water becomes much more vulnerable to lawn-damaging insects.

As we move deeper into summer, we're beginning to see more insect activity, and the best time to protect your lawn is before damage becomes visible.

We’ve had day after day of 95°+ temperatures, and with little to no rain in sight, we’re already starting to see many North Texas lawns showing signs of heat and drought stress.

Here are a few quick watering reminders:

💧 Water early in the morning whenever possible.

💧 Most established lawns need about 1 to 1½ inches of water per week. During extended periods of extreme heat, many lawns may need more.

💧 Water deeply rather than lightly each day to encourage deeper roots.

🌱 A healthy lawn starts with proper fertilization.

Lawn fertilization is about much more than greener grass. The right nutrients, applied at the right time, help develop stronger roots, improve your lawn's ability to naturally compete with w**ds, increase resistance to certain lawn diseases, and keep your lawn looking its best throughout the year.

At Green Top Lawn Care, our fertilization program is designed specifically for North Texas conditions, giving your lawn the nutrients it needs to stay healthy and thrive as the seasons change.

☀️ Summer is here, and now is when your lawn needs the most attention.

A few simple habits can make a big difference during the hottest part of the year:

💧 Walk your lawn regularly to look for dry spots or irrigation issues.

✂️ Mow weekly whenever possible, and never remove more than one-third of the grass blade at a time.

🐛 Peak lawn insect season is here, so now is the time to protect your lawn before damage occurs.

A healthy lawn is a partnership. We'll continue providing the right treatments at the right time, and proper watering and mowing will help your lawn perform at its best.
