We’ve gone several weeks without meaningful rainfall, and many lawns are starting to show signs of drought stress. Without regular irrigation turfgrass begins to weaken, lose color, thin out, and go dormant under prolonged dry conditions.
If your lawn has irrigation, now is the time to make sure it’s running properly and applying enough water to keep the root zone hydrated. If you don’t have irrigation, deep and infrequent watering is much better than light daily watering. This can help prevent even worse winter damage that we have noticed in poorly irrigated lawns from the previous year, especially with the presence of snow and lower than normal temps that we received this year.
A good watering program now can prevent a lot of recovery work later especially in times of drought.
