Some of this depends on how well-established your Michigan lawn is, and the kind of conditions you live in. For new lawns, it is recommended that they get daily watering (or at a minimum, every other day) until the lawn has established a strong root system. Older, more established lawns should only be watered two or three times a week to encourage roots to dig deeper for water sources, which leads to a healthier root system.
What’s the Best Time of Day to Water My Michigan Lawn?
The best time of day to water your lawn is early morning, just before sunrise. The temperatures are relatively cool, so no worries about evaporation. Watering in the heat of the day can be counterproductive because much of the water will evaporate when it hits the surface of a hot lawn. Watering in the evening can lead to fungus and grass disease because the lawn blades do not have adequate time to dry before nighttime. |
