Great video. It's so tempting to water at night especially if the grass is showing signs of needing water. I'm going to push myself to stay the course this year and trust the process. This video reminded me that i still need to dial my sprinklers in so I dont over/under water. We are looking at 🌡hot weather next week. Thank you..I 👍🏻
Thanks buddy! Yes sir, always gotta trust the process! I think you'll be glad you got 'em dialed in. Won't have to worry about totals anymore. I'm jealous of that hot weather you've got coming, still rainy and pretty cool here. Thanks again bro! 👊
A most-helpful video, thank you. We have just suffered from the warmest period in history here in Vancouver Canada… I will follow your advice as I have been hand-watering too frequently and too lightly.
You’re welcome. Thank you. Glad you found it helpful.
Awesome video. You have a way of explaining lawn care that is clear and helpful. Thank you 😊.
Thank you. I appreciate that. Glad it helps. 😀😀
Nicely done and a pretty simple acronym is going to be super useful! Thanks!
Thank you. Glad you found it helpful. Appreciate your comment. Thanks so much for watching!
Excellent ,clear easy to follow helpful advice . Thank you.
You’re welcome. Thank you!
Great video! Probably one of the best explanations on how to water a lawn!!
Thank you buddy! Means a lot. Hope it helps lots of folks out.
@@BudgetLawns I’ll be sharing this with a few of my buddies who water improperly.
Thanks man. Sadly, most people do.
This is the best video I’ve seen on watering thank you so much!
You’re welcome. Thank you!
Good simple tips and breakdown of the basics. I love the acronym!
Thank you. Really appreciate that! Simple saves time and money! 👊
Great tips and advice.....thank you!!!
You’re very welcome. Glad you found it helpful. Thank you.
An excellent presentation. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much. Appreciate that.
Thanks a million, helpful information for sure!
👊Awesome. Glad you found it helpful. Thanks so much!
From one landscaper to another....GREAT video......Deep....In-frequently.... Early......
Right on. Thank you. Appreciate ya!
Awesome content! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you as well!
Awesome advice and....i learn a lot, thank you.
Awesome. That’s great to hear. Thank you. I appreciate your support.
Really appreciate how you put so much thought into you vids. I would have never come up with tuna can for T. Good stuff!
Thank you very much. With a family, full-time job, and the rest of life, I don't have the time to put in a lot of shooting and editing effort, so I really try to make sure the content part is valuable for you all. Thank you for noticing and mentioning that. Really means a lot. Your support is much appreciated!
Great video! Thanks!
You’re welcome. Thank you. Always happy to help.
Thank you for great information!❤
You’re very welcome. Thank you for watching.
I love your acronym for remembering the basics of watering. My favorite sprinkler is the Orbit 6 Gear H2O sprinkler. It is gentle like an oscillating sprinkler, but puts out more water closer to an impact. Its not as fast as an impact but certainly much faster then an oscillating sprinkler
Thanks so much buddy! Sounds like a sweet sprinkler. I'll have to check it out. Thanks again bro!
www.amazon.com/Orbit-H2O-6-Drive-Sprinkler-Spike/dp/B000FJX4IQ may be able to find it for a buck or 2 cheaper at a box store. Owned mine for 2 years and going strong, no complaints. I have decent water pressure so the sprinkler sprays 25-30' while still getting good coverage
Right on. Thanks man!
Thank you so much for the advice 🙏 Great information 👍
You’re welcome. Thank you. Glad it helps.
Great tips!!!! I was definitely watering to frequently.....
Thank ya. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
I’m a new fan ❤. Love the information and way you put it out there. We are having a new Bermuda sod lawn put in our back yard tomorrow after a full day of prep from the landscaper. Saved your video for reference.
Awesome. Congrats. Good luck 👍
Great tips, brother! I wish I had a rainy April, and unfortunately, May is shaping up to be even drier. 🤙🏾🌱
Thanks bro. I wish I coulda sent some your way. I’m totally infested with brown patch now. It’s bad. Too much for too long with no sun for any drying. Is what it is at this point. Hope you get some soon!
Great tips! I finally used measuring guages (those little yellow ones from Amazon) on all my zones this year and really dialed in my watering.
Right on. Worth it for sure. Takes the guessing out of it. Appreciate ya buddy!
Can u post a link on those.
☀️Sweet!! Got our Bermuda Bros shirt on! I’ve got the same rain gage! 👍 We got 90s rolling in but no rain 😳Great video!!
Yes sir! People are lovin it! Send 90s my way. Finally in the 70s here. But 70-90% rain chances almost every day this next week. Thanks buddy 👊!
Early, Deep, Infrequent and when my trucks not in the driveway. I’m using a well for my irrigation. Gotta keep it off the cars n trucks. 👍🏼
Yeah, for sure. Don't wanna waste any of that well water. Thanks so much for tuning in man! Appreciate ya!
Checking out some oldies, but goodies! Hope you had a good holiday season! Happy New Year see you in the spring!
Appreciate ya buddy! Hope to start on some fresh videos soon. Happy New Year to you as well. Hope the fam enjoyed baby’s first Christmas! 👊👊
It really is fun checking that rain gage. I'm always way off. Cheers dude
Haha, me too. The kids love it. That's enough reason for me to always check it. Thanks man! Cheers!
Love the tuna can thanks !
👍👍 thanks for watching.
Great video!
Thank you. Appreciate ya watching.
Excellent! I love content like this. That’s an “Amen!” from me…
Edit: Yeah, it’s gonna take a long time…. I’ve had the sprinkler (oscillating) going for fifteen minutes now and water has just barely covered the bottom of my 1” collecting container. I have it placed halfway between the sprinkler unit and the edge of the spray distance.
What we need is a good, long, soaking rain. Otherwise we’re buying all the waterworks employees beach houses.
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it. You’re so right. Definitely need those soaking rains. The water bill sky rockets having to water. Appreciate ya watching and commenting.
That tuna can tip is pure genius! I should probably get a rain gauge though.
Thank you. It sure does come in handy. The rain gauge is a must. Appreciate ya watching and commenting!
Good job !
Thank you! Appreciate ya! Have a good weekend.
Great advice. All preseason plans get thrown out the window when reality hits. Have to go with the punches and sometimes even when ducking and weaving you get hit. Have to make some adjustments and stay on your feet. Its a 12 round fight lol :)
Haha yeah they do. Love the analogy. Only the most fluid of fighters will survive. Thanks so much buddy. Always appreciate ya.
Definitely need to measure sprinkler output with cans. Found my irrigation zones vary.
That's great feedback. Always worth dialing it in. Thanks so much bro!
Keeping it simple 👍🏻 I like it. 😁
All day everyday. Thanks bud!
Very nice! 👍👍👍
Thank you. Appreciate that!👊
SO FINALLY, one of the people in my town who asked me for mt advise on watering listen to me, & switched to watering early morning. Completely restored their lawn, & made a disease in one of their shrubs disappear🙂.
NO ONE listens to me when i say "If you can't water before 9am, you're pretty much wasting water."
I do understand this just is not an option for some people.
You’ve certainly steered them in the right direction. Nice job. Appreciate ya watching and commenting.
Nice shirt, it’s like seeing all my lawn friends in one place.
Thanks man. One big party on the shirt. Good times. 👊
Great advice, starting my DIET watering routine tomorrow morning!
Right on. Thank you. Appreciate ya watching and commenting.
Thanks so much for the very helpful information. I've been searching the internet looking for how to know when I've watered an inch. Your tuna can idea is the answer I was looking for! Gonna go fix me a tuna sandwich so I can have a can to use.
You’re very welcome. Glad it helps. Thank you for watching and commenting. Enjoy that sandwich. I love tuna 😊
How did I miss this one? Slid in under the radar.
No worries brother. It gets tough to catch everyone's videos. Even stressful sometimes. I totally understand if you don't get to them all. Won't be any hard feeling here. There may be times I miss yours as well. Thanks bud!
Your content is great to watch and really well put together. Your a natural in front of a camera. Subbed 👍
Thank you so much. Really appreciate that feedback and the sub! 👊
With all the steps it takes to have a nice lawn and mowing most likely being the number one step to do correctly, watering is probably the most abused step for a lack of a better word. It is done so incorrectly by many and you have simplified it by getting a rain gauge. It is not the cure all but it does tell you how much water your lawn is getting when and if it does rain. For nothing else at least when it rains you know the coverage is good :)
Couldn't agree more. People really abuse the watering part for sure. That simple $3 rain gauge takes so much of the error out of it. And you're right, can't beat the coverage of a good rainfall. Thanks so much bro. Always appreciative of your feedback!
Just got the same exact rain gauge myself a week ago. Tried to download rain meter apps, etc but weren’t sure if they were accurate. No I know how much rain exactly with the rain gauge. I figured I would have to angle it when measuring the sprinkler but a tuna can is probably easier for that. Love the content!
Nice! Yeah, I'm skeptical of the apps too. Unless the reporting station is in my neighborhood, there's no way they're accurate. Can't get more accurate than a rain gauge in my back yard 👊. Appreciate ya watching and dropping a comment.
@@BudgetLawns Exactly. It was time to stop wondering and be sure with the rain gauge. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you. 👊
Here the sun goes down at midnight and comes back up at 4 AM in the summer so I just kind of water whenever I can.
I water in the evenings, but I live in semi-arid western Oklahoma. Most of our rain happens at night or in the evenings anyway so a little more can't hurt, I reckon.
Agreed. Might as well follow the natural patterns. Sounds like ya got it figured out. Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate ya!
Any sprinklers you recommend? Great videos! Appreciate the info.
Thank you. I'm not really picky. I've been using some cheap ones from my local hardware store for the last 5 years and have gotten great mileage out of them. Gilmour is a solid brand in my opinion...for the price. Hope this helps. Appreciate ya watching and commenting.
I have followed a strict water routine on top of using pre emergant in the spring, soil samples to add or decrease what soil needs and fertilizer in spring and even in summer with liquid fertilizer. My lawn looks like a golf corse or a pro baseball stadium grass. Takes lots of work but so worth it.
Nice job. Does take a lot of work for sure. Keep it up. Thanks for watching.
I hope someone will send rain my way each week 😁. Great video
When are you going to have that shirt raffled 😄
Haha, me too. But right now, I'm tired of the rain. Hasn't stopped since I woke up this morning. Well, really for the last 2 weeks for that matter haha. Pretty sweet shirt. I bought it from Sunny Bermuda. Check out his channel here on RUclips. He's got it on his store. Appreciate ya watching as always. Thank you!
Quick question, where exactly should you put the tuna can in the trajectory path of the sprinkler? The half way mark? As in half way from the head of the sprinkler and the very further point it reaches? Thanks again for the amazing content.
Good question. I played around with the tuna cans every time I watered. Closer to the sprinkler there tends to be less water, while further away you can get more. Every sprinkler is different it seems like, so you just kinda have to experiment with it to get an idea of water output. That's the frustrating thing about watering. It's not exact and we want it to be because we're trying to get that 1 inch. I learned awhile ago to just be happy with somewhere around an inch. Thanks so much for watching and the question. Really appreciate the support!
I had to do the early night watering all last year and was super worried i was gonna have fungus issues cause i am just not able to water early morning. My lawn survived. It was just happy to get water lol
Bingo. Typically things work out just fine. Main thing is get the water when you can! Appreciate you bro!
I have one to much water you are right
@@MizzStylezDiva Thank ya!
I see those custom CT blocks :-)
Yeaaaaah buuuuddy! That second set all made easily possible thanks to you. Really appreciate ya bro!!!
T for track
👍👍Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the tips. Great sarcasm😂
😆😆 thank you. Glad it helps and you enjoyed it.
I water every saturday with a hose and sprayer while enjoying several "beverages". I'm done watering when the buzz really kicks in. Maybe an inch, maybe 4. I know its too much when I wake up sunday morning in the yard.
😂😂😂 that’s what I’m talking about. Love it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I agree with watering in AM growing seed, I’d recommend watering evening. Promoting growth argument doesn’t hold water IMO. I’m pretty sure my grass has been rained on at nighttime. Never had an issue with fungus.
I agree and have much the same experience. These are just best practices as recommend by turf grass science. Appreciate ya watching and the feedback.
I water my bermuda in the evenings and I've had issues with fungus several times.
We'll see if watering in the mornings will help.
👍👍 worth a shot. Thanks for watching.
@@kroanosm617did it
Really great video, thankyou. At what point after seeding would you start the 1inch per week though? I know the seeds require much more frequent watering to become established, but not sure what constitutes 'established'
Appreciate ya. The simple answer is It’s established when it is fully filled in. Thin lawns can take more water because they don’t retain the moisture as well as a thick one. Hope this helps.
@@BudgetLawns wonderful thanks
On newer sod installation, what’s the schedule for watering before the roots are fully established?

Got home from work one day and it was sitting on the front doorstep. Dad Who Mows Best sent it to me as a gift. Super nice of him. Really grateful! Makes all the difference in the world. Thanks so much for watching.
starts off ranty but there's good info here so keep watching
Appreciate ya!
Now how long does it take a typical underground irrigation system to put out. Half inch of water? Hunter heads, heads all along the perimeter is pretty typical we're I'm at.
What do you suggest for someone like me where it's nearing 100° every single day? Seems like there's no rain in sight. It's going to be a brutal summer here in Texas. I tried to stay on the 1/2 day schedule but my st Augustine is looking real rough.
Just gotta do the best you can. Bump up to 1.5 a week if ya need to. 3x.5 for each watering. The heat is brutal right now. Don’t worry about it. Not much you can do. Appreciate ya watching. Hope this helps.
If you have ample pressure revolving sprinklers though they have only medium area coverage, water very quickly and very evenly.
Certainly many factors at play without a one size fits all. Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate ya!
New subscriber friend 👍
Awesome. Thank you. Glad to have ya here.
Do you have any recommendations for a sprinkler that provides even coverage? The oscillators don't do bad if you're doing a large area but I have some smaller areas to water, and the only sprinklers I have for smaller areas give very uneven coverage.
I’m not too picky on sprinklers. I’m only using an oscillating one at the moment no matter the area I’m watering. I like the ease of adjusting the spray pattern. Gives me flexibility regardless of the space. I find that the one I use is really even. Here’s a link to it (not the same brand as mine). I think they’ve rebranded, but it looks just like this. This is not an affiliate link. www.amazon.com/Rocky-Mountain-Goods-Oscillating-Sprinkler/dp/B07NDLY2ZV/ref=asc_df_B07NDLY2ZV/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=343238573411&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11387934471961732037&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1013339&hvtargid=pla-713041722388&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=71762478951&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=343238573411&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11387934471961732037&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1013339&hvtargid=pla-713041722388

That rain gauge looks familiar my friend. Throw it into the garage in the winter or it will crack.
Haha, you got that right. Won't make that mistake again. Thanks so much buddy!
The tuna can 😁
👍👍
I water when I can which is in the evening, I’m not worried about fungus because it’s dry and no humidity here and it seems to work well
👍👍 appreciate ya watching.
8:22 Our rain gauge is a cactus if it dies time to water. SW it does not rain.
That’s tough. I love the rain.
Thank I was told to water every 3 day heat bet my
Grass early in morning. But thanks
Thanks so much for watching. Hope it helps. These are just preferred guidelines and not hard and fast rules.
I am new to this...after I figure out the best spots to put my sprinklers, what is a good way to mark the spots so I can put them back after I mow.
I just pick out markers in the lawn…a fence post, a mark on the concrete, spot on house, etc…once you do it enough, you’ll remember their spots. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
Sandy soils require more frequent waterings then clay.

Dude I'm watching you Slaughter princess in the comments under his community post. I f****** love you dude. You got no freaking fear. You're a damn Rockstar. That shady dude needs to be part of the cancel culture. 🥃🥰💯
If you can dish it, you gotta be able to take it. Just saying it how I see it. Thanks for the support. You rock 👊!
Had the exact same rain gauge and it cracked so bad that it doesn't even collect water anymore, if and when it rains. Rain gauges are becoming obsolete around in my area because it doesn't rain enough to call it rain.
Bummer. I had one crack too because I didn’t put it in the garage before the first freeze. Wish I could give you some of my rain. Hasn’t stopped for weeks now. Very short breaks between showers or storms. Thanks so much for watching the vid. Appreciate your comment.
I water 3:30 in the morning 1hour every 3 days lawn looks great.
Very nice 👍. Whatever works, works. These are just ideal guidelines based off plant science. Appreciate ya watching and commenting.
On the subject of night watering, it may not apply to everybody but down here in Central Mexico where I live I've been night watering my mom's lawn at night for the past 40 years and never ever had fungal issues, so why do I water at night ?
1.- water pressure, water pressure during daytime is nearly zero so sprinklers won't run.
2.- if there is water pressure then it's too hot to water the lawn during the daytime, I bet half of the water you dropped evaporates
3.- I have plenty of time to do it.
Very interesting. Thank you for sharing that. At the end of the day, it's all about what works best for each person's lawn. Sounds like this is working great for you and really your only choice. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Great job. Keep up the awesome work! Appreciate you!
So straight up, what 2 days should I turn my sprinklers on early morning? Monday and Thursday? How much of a dry period is ideal for those roots to grow strong and healthy?
Wish I could answer that for ya. Really it’s about convenience and if it rains or not. Trying to get on a set schedule just frustrates me so I play things by ear. Usually a few days between watering when it’s hot and dry is good enough. Hope this helps. Appreciate ya.
Can you use miracle grow plant food
and spray it on your grass? Just
curious
Miracle Grow makes a lawn food version. I don’t know the difference between it and the plant food tho. Thanks for watching.
I am prepping my backyard area for a Bermuda lawn, it has been a weed feast for over 7 years due to the drought SW, I have found if I water at 9 PM no wind my soil stays moist until the sun finally hits it at 12:01 PM, if I water at 9 AM the soil stays moist until 12:01 PM. I am building the health of my lawn with organics, when should I put down seed? Zone 9a usual summer temps 95-115 with relative humidity of 33% or lower.
👍👍 I don’t know much about your weather for the rest of the year but Bermuda is best seeded in spring or early summer when the temps warm enough for germination and there’s enough time for full grow in by the end of the season. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
@@BudgetLawns Thanks for checking back in I have sub'd, how long does Bermuda to go from seed to full grow, our summers last until Halloween. IE fire season. Ca. IE inland empire.
@@Moondoggy1941 you bet. Thanks for the sub. It can take 2 weeks just for germination and a lot of watering. It’s hard to say how long full grow in will be because you never know what problems may come up or how smoothly it will go. If it were me, I’d plan on the better part of a full season.
It’s amazing to me how Lawn RUclipsrs haven’t a clue.
It is a lot more complicated than that. The first and most important thing is your soil composition.
You need to get a good understanding of Saturation, Field Capacity, Wiltering Point and Total Available Water.
I’ll give you an example. If you water deep and infrequently in mostly sand soil you will take your turf into the wiltering point for too long so your grass will struggle. Why? Because water in sandy soil leaches a lot faster than other soils. You need to keep the water (soil moisture) within field capacity and wiltering point (total available water/TAW) for as long as your type of soil will hold it in that range in the root zone. And then water again. It’s like keeping your tank full of gas without letting it run out all the way.
Also , your grass maturity normally dictates it’s root zone where you want TAW too be.
And also, this guy states that frequent small waterings simply evaporates? Then mentions how humans need water for health. So imagine being in the full Sun all day without any water… even if you just drank a two good drinks of water during that day it would help right?
I have a cool season grass in my backyard planted in 89% sandy soil. I live in far west Texas where we have plenty of over 100 days during the summer and mostly high 90s the rest. I water 50 minutes Sun, Wed, Fri in the morning and twice a day every day for 10 minutes late morning and early evening dictated by the suns position on my grass. I have seen my grass stand straight up during the 10 minute waterings as if it is thanking me.
My point being is not everything is the cookie cutter regurgitation as this guys would like you to believe. If I watered my TTF twice very deep like this guy is suggesting then I would have dormant or dead grass. My sandy soil simply can’t sustain total available water in the root zone for very long with the sunlight, high ambient temps and leaching.
One other point to complicate more… Watering too much (deep watering) to the point saturation loses water to leaching faster than at field capacity. Volume and weight of the water have something to do with it. Gravity just pulls it down.
Rain water is different. Usually rain comes with a a bit of lightning activity which creates nitrous oxide and naturally fertilizes your grass. Nothing compares to rain water.
Wow, you really typed all that. 😂😂
@@BudgetLawns Of course, just like you thought of that useless diet acronym. LMAO.
PS that's just the academics on watering, I didn't even get into the actual soil science. ha
So any advice on how to water a newly seeded lawn (1 month old) when the weather forecast shows 30-50% chance rain mid afternoon and it might not even rain (has been happening where it shows rain and it barely comes down or not at all)... the weather here in NJ has been so strange the past two months. Driving me insane trying to evenly grow grass from seed. I have lots of patches that are starting to fill in that I had to reseed bc I’m sure the original seed died due to super high temps with minimal watering the first two weeks. I tried my best bc my yard is a rectangle but with circular pattern sprinklers water didn’t always get everywhere well.
Yeah, it has been a strange spring everywhere it seems like. Sorry to hear you're having trouble. My best advice would be to water regardless of what the forecast says. Unless it says 80-100% chance. It's so important when seeding to get enough water, so it's worth the risk of doubling up. You may have to reseed the bare areas and water, water, water. A lot of lawn care is doing your best and fixing the rest. No shame in that. Keep on trying until you get it right. It's all a big experiment sometimes. That's what I love about it. Appreciate ya watching and the comment. Good luck.
@@BudgetLawns thanks so much for the reply! I think I would have loved the process more if I had a better system to watering my yard. I didn’t realize how critical proper water would be.
You bet. Yeah it can be a challenge but it’s a must. You’ll get there. Appreciate ya.
So at what time in the evening is the best time to water? My work schedule really don’t work for morning watering. At this time of the year where I live it’s been around 100 degrees at 5pm and I’ve always heard if the sun is still up, you can burn the grass. Is this true?
No, that’s not true. That’s just people trying to sound smart while living in fear haha. If I water in the evening, it’s usually around 5:30 or 6 to give some time for the grass to dry a little before dark. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
@@BudgetLawns very helpful! Thank you sir!

That rain gauge was $20 where I got it, what you talking about a few bucks?
6 bucks at Walmart. www.walmart.com/ip/AcuRite-5-inch-Blue-Capacity-Rain-Gauge/16888924
Inflation like everything else. I used to get em for 3.99. This video is a couple years old. Thanks for watching.
1" a week is a lot. I would say more like 1/2"/week. It is called capillary action. After the 1st irrigation the next 1/4" will infiltrate another 3"s down. You can apply to much at one time. 1/4" per irrigation is more than enough.
I’m not making that up. It’s turf grass science. If you wanna create your own science, go ahead. I’ll follow what the experts say. I’m just regurgitating what my research has shown me.

And i live beside a golf course and the sprinklers don’t even come on till midnight. I have never seen any fungus ever.
Yup. I grew up on a golf course and the sprinklers ran at night too. Just gotta let it drink when ya can. Thanks for watching.
Question) if it rains for 7 days and seven nights the grass is going to get a disease from so much rain 🌧 🤔
Video about that coming out tomorrow. I’m going through it now. Likely it will. If you’re lucky it won’t. Thanks for watching and commenting. Stay tuned.
@@BudgetLawns, Yessir!
Water, Water, Water.
Haha sorta. Thanks buddy!
HOW DO YOU FIX OR HELP A SHORT ROOT SYSTEM ?
Water deep and infrequently. Aeration will help too.
Why a rain gauge? Just Google your area weather report and see how much rain you got
That’s so far from accurate. My national weather service reporting station is on the opposite side of town. There’s nothing more accurate than a $3 rain gauge on your property. It’s silly not to have one.
