Key Watering Guidelines

Consistency & Timing Matter

How to Water Your Newly Seeded Lawn

Water three times daily at 8:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m., and 4:00 p.m. for 8 to 10 minutes per zone. This keeps the top 1 to 2 inches of soil moist throughout the day, essential for seed germination.

Reduce to two daily waterings, at 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., maintaining the same duration. The young grass needs consistent moisture as its roots continue to develop.

Water every other day to encourage deeper root growth.

Begin watering less frequently but for longer durations, aiming for 1 inch of water per week, including rainfall. Deep watering promotes a resilient, drought-tolerant lawn.

For Long-Term Lawn Health

Best Practices

Adjust your mowing height based on seasonal conditions and grass type to avoid stressing young grass.

Regular fertilization and weed control keep your lawn healthy and competitive against pests and disease.

Additional Considerations

Watering needs may vary depending on soil type. Sandy soils drain faster and may require more frequent watering, while clay-heavy soils retain moisture longer.
