Default fixing a lawn

Define sprinkled regularly please. If you watered every day but
shallowly then you may have contributed to disease or you may have just
not had enought water there and the roots never went deep. In clay you
need to get an inch or so per week, but it has to be done slowly since
it penetrates clay so slowly.



Well, we had quite some rain last season, so only if it was dry for a
week or so we would sprinkle. I didn't keep a diary, though

Would it be useful to use an aerator (sp?) to improve the soil and water
penetration?
