How much should I water?
Getting your watering right is half the battle if you want a nice lawn. Here are some tips and tricks on watering your lawn.
Most people underestimate how long it takes to really water your lawn adequately.
From April-October we recommend watering 3-4x a week
Water between 4am-8am

There are two types of sprinklers. Rotors and spray heads. They both require different run times.
Set fan sprinklers to run 10-20 minutes per zone
Set rotating sprinklers to water 30 minutes - 1 hour per zone
