When is the best time to water the lawn?

The earlier in the day, the better! The best time to water your lawn is in the morning, between the hours of 5 am until 10 am. Watering in the heat of the day can cause the droplets to act as magnifying glasses, burning the grass blades. Mid-day watering can also cause water droplets to evaporate instead of being absorbed by the roots. Watering in the evening will increase the risk of fungus developing, as the water stays on the grass plants.
