best time to water your yard(carpet grass)?


If you mean by sprinkling, then you should water in the early morning
for two reasons.

1. Evaporation will be reduced because of the cooler air and higher
relative humidity, thus saving water.
2. Any water that does not soak in will evaporate as the day warms,
thus reducing the danger of fungus and other diseases encouraged by
dampness.

Now, if you have a drip system, water anytime.
