HOW to WATER YOUR GRASS in the Summer

In this video, I'm going to teach you HOW to WATER YOUR GRASS in the Summer. In the Summertime, all grass types (Cool Season Grass and Warm Season Grass) need watering in the summer months. Warm Season Grasses (Bermuda grass) tend to thrive, spread in the heat. But Cool Season Lawns will slow down in top/root growth in the heat. Especially when the temperatures are consistently over 85 degrees. When this happens, Cool Season Grasses will go into dormancy (turning brown). Most people think that they're grass is dead but it just in defense mode protecting itself. So watering is key in the summer months inorder to keep your grass green. Grass needs atleast 1 inch of water per week to survive the summer heat. In this video, I show you how to achieve that 1 inch mark and what tools that you'll need to use. I hope this video helps you in your journey towards keeping your lawn green in the summer. Thanks for watching.
God Bless,
Polo

Polo, I found your videos on KZbin. I guarantee you that I will watch each and every one. You have a complete library of educational lawm care video's from A to Z something that I have been looking for, for years. Everyone out there looking to learn more about how to improve their lawn need to watch these. It's like finding a gold mine. I can't thank you enough for making and sharing these. You have a loyal fan here.

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

I Really Appreciate you Wes. Your words mean alot. THANK YOU for taking the time out to watch and get some education at the same time because at the end of the day, we all want the best looking lawn that we could have. God Bless You Sir 🙏🏾

Great information as always Polo! I need to get a rain gauge. Thankfully the Lord has blessed me with rain after going through a 3.5 week spell of me getting no rain and having to drag the hose pipe out and water the lawn.

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

Praise God Bob. We went through the same thing where everyone's lawn was just about going into dormancy. This week we received 1.25 inches of rain. We needed this rain so much. God is Good 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Amen Polo! Amen!

Hey polo i used the same water gauges ingot 0.5 in 30 mins so im watering 2x a week 30 min n 30 each zone !!! Great advice !!

That's great. Everyone's lawn and sprinklers are different. That's why it's good to use those gauges and find out 👍🏾

[@danielg.1365]

Love your videos!!!! Very helpful. I just got sprinklers for the first time and not sure how much I should be watering. I also think I have a fungus issue. I checked out your other videos on fungicide. I already ordered the propiconazle.

Hello, here in California we're are under drought restrictions. :(!

Ouch, Is there certain times that you can water your lawn? Certain days?

Is the same way for in ground sprinklers

Yes

[@Louisville627]

What sprinkler head you using? That thing pushing, and what’s ur PSI?

That Sprinkler is a Rainbird Sprinkler from Bigsprinkler.com I will put a link in the description

[@MRM5J]

Their tripod is awesome too

[@garryrobinson5695]

Hey polo when you say you usually run the sprinkler for a hour. Is that a hour in each zone?

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

Yes. So I have 1 sprinkler for my test plot, 1 for my backyard and 1 foe my front. They all get watered on separate days. The one in my backyard doesn't get 1 hr. It only gets 30 mins because it's a very small area.

[@garryrobinson5695]

@@PoloFieldsLawnService I have a lot of square footage of lawn. I have to move the sprinkler 2 times to cover my lawn on the left side of my house and three times on the right. I’m getting so tired of moving them that I want a sprinkler system but they’re expensive to be professionally installed.

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

@garryrobinson5695 They surely are. That is definitely an investment, but this is the only option. I have a client who water's 30,000 sqft, so I know what you mean when you say that you have to move sprinklers. He has the ones on the tripod, though, so they do shoot out a little further than a normal one

[@MRM5J]

I get about .3 per hour on weeks it doesn't rain that means I water from 3 am to 10.am. to cover each zone 6 days per week alternating front to bank all via hoses. Any other ideas to make it simpler?

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

Have you ever tried watering your lawn in sections? Like watering just the front at the beginning of the week and the backyard towards the end of the week?

[@Methodical2]

Can you share a link to the products you use for the viewers?

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

Yes Sir I will put them up

[@Methodical2]

@@PoloFieldsLawnService Thanks. I wanted those small rain gauges.

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

@@Methodical2 No Problem Sir

[@MrEazyE357]

Why wouldn't you just use the same things you use to measure the output from your sprinkler to measure rainfall? Seems silly to have both.

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

If you use the sprinkler gauge for an all day rain, it can only hold 1 1/2 inches of water vs using a rain gauge which can hold more than 3 inches. My rain gauge can hold 8 inches of water. You might get 3, 4, 5 inches of rain from a good storm. You won't be able to measure that with the sprinkler gauge as it only holds up to 1 1/2 inches of water. The sprinkler gauge is only used to measure water from your sprinkler, not from the rain. Hope this helps EvanP 🙏🏾

Not only are you workin but you putting out solid advice too. Happy 4th 👍💚🦸

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

Thank you Striperman ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

[@comingforyou3104]

Yup it's a calculation 🧮 if the person who doesn't know about lawns is left in charge the grass will start looking dormant and yellow.. cause it doesn't get the inch of water it needs nor at the correct time. Timing is important, has to be before daylight 10 minutes before sun break at least to have the water in retention in the grass for the day...

[@PoloFieldsLawnService]

Timing is key 👍🏾
