The best time to water your lawn is in the early morning. It is unadvisable to water in the evening since this may leave the turf moist for a prolonged period of time. Most lawn disease activity will increase if there is available moisture in dark surrounding. This will in affect induce fungal activity and eventually deteriorate your turf.
When planting trees, insert a used cylinder plastic bottles with the top removed and bottom cut-away- along side the plant. When watering, slowly fill the pipe or bottle with water, which will go directly to the roots without evaporating. Wetting the soil to a depth of 6 inches is generally adequate.
Big trees usually do not require extra water, except during extreme hot weather. One way to retard water losses is to place mulch over the soil.
A common question: What if I’m to busy to water the plant every morning?
Install a sprinkler in few locations and set for at least one hour.
