I’ve worked hard to get grass growing in small bare areas. They have filled in pretty well. I don’t want to loose those or have any more begin to appear. With this drought and no appreciable rain in the forecast for at least 45 days I’m currently watering four days a week for 25 minutes in the three main areas of the lawn right now. No runoff so it is soaking into the ground. I’m seeing too many brown lawns that are watering according to the villages suggestion number of days and length of watering time. Every lawn is different and every home owner has different desires how they would like their lawn to look. Should be green. Not brown.
