Lawn Watering Guide for California

Mar 25, 2010

As we move out of our rainy season, many of us will again rely on sprinkler systems to water our lawns. UC ANR has a great publication for optimizing water use on lawns. Easy to follow instructions are provided to help people reduce water use in three steps:

  • Determine if your grass is a warm-season or cool-season variety
  • Determine the output of your sprinklers
  • Determine how many minutes you need to water your lawn each week
