Who here will water when it’s time ? I hate watering at high temps as crabgrass pops 


I haven’t had to in a few years. But when I do. I have 1 sprinkler in front and 1 in back. I put them on like 7am when I wake up and turn off like 740am when I leave a few days a week

If catch someone watering my lawn,they'll promptly be escorted away.

Headed out in a little bit for my 8th cut of the season and probably my first sunburn while my fanatic neighbor is on his 16th cut.  My lawn is still a really nice green while his is shown signs of turning brown. I am jealous so I am going to lower the deck and cut it low.

Watering is out of the question. I do not want to increase the number of times I have to circle the yard each week.

While short green grass is nice... brown grass is a beautiful thing. :sungum:

Just picked up my dads lawn roller to hit my place a couple times. Hoping it will make it a little better.


Unless you have bad frost heave, rolling is actually bad for you lawn. Soil compaction does not promote good drainage or growth

I’ve had a automatic irrigation system for 15 years . It’s like insurance, don’t always need it but when ya do it’s a push of a button 


Yeah that the annoying part of watering, setting everything up, moving it around and stuff.

I only water when it’s getting dire and mostly because the droughts seem to let weeds in.

Not frost heave but my buddys truck ruts from helping move last year.  I usually wouldnt but its extremely rough was hoping to smooth it out a little bit which it did but not great.
