This spring we have had an abundance of moisture and our
lawns and gardens are benefiting from it. With its deep green color, Kentucky
Bluegrass is in its glory…for now. Leap forward to late June/July with the watering
restriction and take into consideration how to maintain your lawn. Whether your
turf is a bluegrass, ryegrass, or fescue, proper watering techniques can
promote a healthy lawn.
Kentucky Bluegrass or ryegrass lawns need anywhere from 1”
in shady areas to 2.25” of water per week in full sun. This may be difficult to
do with the restrictions but the following information may help you get the
best results for your lawn.
