Summer Watering: Water start times should always be in the morning, not evening. Watering in the evening invites insects, fungus and other diseases to infest your landscape. Property should be watered at least every other day. Many properties need water every day when temperatures reach 95 degrees and above. Spray heads should be set for 6-10 minutes. Rotors should be set for 15-25 minutes.

Fall and Spring: Property should be watered 2-3 times a week. Spray head and rotor times same as Summer times.

Winter Watering: This depends on how cold it really gets. Once or twice per week is probably enough.

Drought Periods: Our region frequently has droughts. During drought times watering should be increased usually to every day. If you are already watering every day, you may have to water once in the morning and once in the evening. This is usually not necessary, however we have maintained properties in the past and had to water twice daily for a few weeks.

Important: During times of rain turn your system off, even if you have a rain sensor. Many times the rain sensor will turn on the next day and this usually too soon. LET YOUR PROPERTY COMPLETELY DRY OUT BEFORE TURNING SYSTEM ON. This may take one to five days or more. Remember ALL PROPERTIES ARE DIFFERENT. Some have good drainage and some don't. Some properties hold water. Trees obviously affect watering. Large trees will always win the water battle. Once you understand how to water your property your landscape will do much better.
