COWIE from 6A
“We have research, numbers
and all the evidence we need to
know that you can lose as much
as half the water if it’s put out
during daylight,” Harrison said.
Direct sunlight, high tempera
tures and a light wind can evap
orate or blow water away from
both the water stream and from
the ground.
“That means you have to put
out twice as much,” he said.
“And your water bill may be
twice as high. But your grass
won’t benefit an equal amount.”
When should you water your
lawn?
Nighttime is best, Harrison
said.
“It’s better for the grass, it’s a
better use of the water, and it’s
usually easier to get better water
pressure,” he said. “The only
way it’s not better is for the per
son who might have to get up
from bed to turn it on or off.”
A timer, though, can do that
for you.
Many permanent systems are
on timers. It’s usually fairly easy
to change that timing to twice a
week, watering each time
enough to apply about three
quarters of an inch. Many gar
den centers carry timers that
work just as easily on hose
faucets.
Watering during the day
increases the time the grass is
wet and makes disease problems
more likely. At night, the grass
is wet from dew already, so
more water won’t hurt.
Applying a little water often
will keep grass roots close to the
soil surface, so they reach
the nutrients and water that are
available deeper. A thorough
soaking once or twice weekly
helps roots grow deeper, result
ing in healthier grass.
