IRRIGATIONWe recommend that you replace the batteries in your clock. Choose a schedule and set your clock accordingly. Schedule A is for those who want to continue stretching their water use. Split your watering time into thirds. Water the first interval at 1:00 A.M., the second interval at 3:00 A.M., and the third interval at 5:00 A.M. When calculating for Drip, its gallons per hour, not per minute, flowing through the emitters. Don't hesitate; aerate. Aerating creates channels in the soil that fill up with water, allowing a deeper saturation to the root zone. It also reduces soil compaction which is very common in clay soil and in large grassy areas where sports games are played.
