I’m kind of a lawn nerd. I bought a cheap rain gauge and if I get 1” of rain a week then I don’t irrigate. That’s about what healthy St Augustine grass needs to thrive.
I keep a journal of my mowing and rainfall on a lawn app so I know when to turn the irrigation on. Mine has been off since early June.
I’ve attached some pictures of the gauge, my lawn and a journal shot. Like I said, I’m a lawn nerd….
