I water my lawn when it rains, if you don't live in the desert or a draught all you're doing by watering your lawn is conditioning it to need more water than it otherwise would
@TransgendrAceWithGayestOfGraceКүн бұрын
Like I agree that it’s less efficient to water in the middle of the day due to the fact that more water will evaporate instead of being absorbed by the grass, but it’s pretty well-known that the sun reflecting off of wet foliage can increase the risks of it being scorched by the sun. It’s the same reason that the sun reflecting off of a body of water can increase our own chances of being sunburned. So like I’m not saying that it will happen or even that it happens frequently, but if you’re at a high altitude at the hottest point of summer and you water your grass in the middle of the day when the sun has the highest UV index, then your grass is probably gonna get burnt af

I’ve only ever heard people say that water droplets do that. That’s why you don’t water plants in the middle of the day and why you only should water in the evening or in the early morning. The sun reflecting off of the water droplets can scorch the foliage. Like, this is a very well-known thing

Thanks for the detailed explanation for why, not just for evaporation efficiency, it's a terrible idea. You can make up for this by adding eight seconds of substantive content and understanding.

@Thedumbgenius22 күн бұрын
you are wrong, the droplets cause the grass to sweat out what moisture is in the blade, just like when we take a shower and walk outside into the humidity and we instantly start sweating, water your lawn from 4am to 6am before the sun rises but do not water at night.

Lmfao this man maintaining a lawn in Phoenix of all places… biggest middle finger to the environment one can make in a desert. The only saving grace i see here are the trees providing shade for the grass. Otherwise literally planting anything else instead of the grass would save on water. And probably help reduce the overall heat significantly. Let’s not forget that a significant part of why our heat waves and overall warming is so intense is because of the sheer amount of flat, even surfaces; grass, concrete and asphalt exacerbate the heat, especially in large, sprawling metropolises like Phoenix, Dallas, or Houston. You wanna live like this man, move to the north where it actually rains.

First of all, down with lawns. Grass lawn should be phased out rapidly. We have a water shortage on this planet that is only getting worse every freaking day, and water should be used to help people survive and to be used in gardens that actually feed people instead of a lawn that requires a lot of water and usually pesticides as well. Get with the program

I agree in spirit but there is no shortage of water. The amount of total water is literally increasing due to climate change. What there is is an overpopulation of people who have a tendency to waste water. You have to study the geological history of Earth for all the time that Earth has had liquid water to understand. It's a natural cycle of climate change. When the glaciers melt, this changes the cycle of ocean currents which redirects the rain. Increasing the amount of shallow waters as coastal cities become swallowed by the ocean increases evaporation which increases the total amount of rain. The deserts of the world were actually created by the ice ages. Trapping the water in glaciers and lowering the sea level caused the ocean currents to shift in the past. What we're expecting now is the slow process of reversal. It may get worse before it gets better. It may take thousands of years, maybe 10s of thousands of years, but the rains will restore all the deserts to their previous state: grass lands, forests and even rainforests. The logical conclusion is to start the relocation process now instead of waiting for people to die or go broke. Some may dehydrate while others drown. Some will pay more for water while others pay for flood damge. It can all be avoided by making the obvious choices now. Conserving water may not do anything but delay the problem until it's too late. Like a bandaid on a gunshot wound.

@@brookelord3448 the issue of available water is actually pretty complicated. A good bit of it is tied up in plastic bottles, which when becoming overheated results in microplastics in the bottled water. Meanwhile, we have the Nestle company going all over the planet gaining access to community water just for profit, and the CEO of that company says humans do not have a right to water. Contamination and pesticides in the available water is another even more important issue . Water has been contaminated for years in Michigan and the powers that be don't feel like it's that important to solve that problem mainly because most of the people who need that problem solved are black. So it is definitely a serious problem that doesn't really get help with your review of how the deserts of the world were created by ice ages. It may be a fact, but it does nothing to help people have clean water right now or educate them to not waste water
