- How to deep cycle water your lawn. MORE INFO → www.howtowithdoc.com/how-to-w...
Watering your lawn has two basic modes. The standard mode of watering your lawn is a DEEP cycle watering, then a pause to allow it to dry out. This is the watering pattern that most should follow in the spring. During drought conditions, we switch over to more frequent waterings to help our lawn survive the heat and to keep it from going drought dormant. In the video below Doc shows a deep water cycle.
The general rule for lawn watering is one inch per week. But it's also important to understand how and when to water this amount. It's important to watch the ten day forecast and understand the last 7 days and the next 7 days. if you enter a dry spell in the spring give your lawn a DEEP water cycle.
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge Doc! Much appreciated!
Love the videos, Doc. I enjoy your scientific approach to lawn care and how well you explain the logic behind why we do the things we do
Doc, If you look on page 8 of your greenskeeper manual it tells you how to get a cut height of 1 1/2 inches. There are three adjustment holes for the back axle. The mower comes with the axle set in the middle hole from the factory. To get the max height of cut the back axle needs to be set in the lowest of the three holes. If your mower is brand new, you will have to get the chain extension kit which has a half and full link so you can adjust to the lower hole and make the chain reach (or that is what I had to do).

For the compaction problem why wouldn’t you do the plugs, by using the spikes, although you’re making holes, aren’t you further compacting the soil?
Great video Doc. Have you considered getting a ProPlugger and plugging some Bermuda (either from your own lawn or a commercial sod farm) into the brown patch areas?
Just posted on one of your videos from last year. Try IFTTT to program your drought conditions schedule with your Rachio. Super easy
I went for a walk today. Lawn finally starting to thicken up, and then.....DOLLAR SPOT!!!! AAARRRGGGHHHH! I never had a dollar spot problem until now! Treating it this evening.
Just found a wetting agent you add a few tblspns to water and makes soil way more absorbing ,might be worth looking into it said Anderson’s at the top but not sure if they actually make it. It’s called water in
Hydrawise has cycles built in. you can set a max cycle time and it automatically goes through each zone for the max cycle length until each zone has the required watering duration complete.
How do you do spring and especially summer deep watering( which are different I realize) and use less water?
Is there a reel mower that can cut up 2in? Do you have any suggestions?
You spying on me?
Just back in from
Work and went out to water lawn came back in and up you popped
tHIS IS THE ONE i GOT AcuRite 00899
Wireless Rain Gauge and have it wifi to my other temp guages throughout my hose to the Aurite "Acess" wifi so I can check temps/rain totals on my phone/ipad or computer with their app
Midland/odessa TX today 14th of May we're getting 91° everyday already.. not a single drop in days. What's best cycle? Going crazy here.
I know Bermuda grass has a deep root system and you have clay soil which holds nutrients. But would you recommend a deep cycle watering for a sandy clay loam soil with KBG? I love the idea of it but am concerned I might flush nutrients past the root zone. What are your thoughts or suggestions?
What type of sprinkler heads do you use in this video? They look like they cover nicely!
Doc - I'm in Sarasota with watering restrictions to twice a week. Would you recommend watering an inch each day I am allowed to water? So 2 inches in a week...but with the hot summer days I am unable to CPR the grass with water everyday. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
i have bermuda grass mites here in North Texas. How do I treat this?
Doc, what’s your aerator model? It’s not listed on the webpage. Thanks
Doc, if someone has sandy soil rather than clay, would the days between the deep cycle watering need to be shortened to account for the lower water retention with the sandy soil?
I’m in the same boat
Doc - Arbor Nomics is put down 24-0-0. Thoughts on that?
How many times a year would you put the PGA stuff
@Doc Would you spike aerate in the summer, too, or just in the spring?
If you do it in the summer heat then it needs to be sure it doesn't dry out the roots. Water more often.
My yard is not that big, total just over 2,000 sq ft, would you still recommend a push manual reel mower?
I have 3,000 sqf Bermuda and use a manual McLane 17-PH-7. Cut nice and I use it for my cardio workout
Hey Doc. Nw Florida sandy soil. Bermuda is drying out due to drought and well water very low. Its time for pgf complete. But with low amount of water. Should i wait on some rain that never shows?
Thanks your videos have turned my grass around beautifully.
I'm in san Antonio. Will the deep watering work on st augustine grass? How can I spike aeration if I can't afford the machine?
I have ST. Aug. I just deep water at night, in the summer. I just do it twice a week and for 30 min once or twice a week ( Mon and/or Thus) long and infrequent. I don't have trees (so no shade) and I mow at 3+ inches..I have never had an issue with any disease or bugs Maybe because it's Texas summers are so hot.. And my St. Aug is beautiful, I get so many compliments.
why can't we get PGF Complete in CA?
I live in San Antonio an my lawn is getting brown spots overnight! OCD been counting monitoring everyday and drive me crazy! Lol! Had like 2.25 " of rain in the last few weeks. Can't remember what video it was where you shared that you thought of doing a method to stop brown spots and or considering replacing the sod. Please advise. Enjoy your inspiration and videos!
Thank you
I did spray my lawn about a month agousing the propozole for prevention but so far I got less spots then compared to last year.
I have a red dirt yard with ph of 7.5 so it says thats high Alkaline and it may be higher consideringthe tester i used only wentto 7.5 . Will humachar hel lower that?
I should note that I did put down bermuda sod 2yrs ago. I had been having true green come out and they did OK but I know I can do better for cheaper in the long run. Plus its a hobby
Anybody can do better than truegreen.
@1:52 Better not be talking about me, lol
Where can I find a mower like that? How much does it cost? 😊
Best watering cycle for El Paso Texas which we are almost always in drought?
I'm here in EP too... rains 1 month a year
I wish it rained every 10 days here
De Cruces. What works best for me is deep a couple times a week.
And we're a good ten degrees hotter than him right now. I'm already watering according to his summer protocol
Morning dew? Whats that? Lol
I've always been good with watering... just needing to make lawn more healthy... bought all that stuff
Pfg complete
Super juice

That chicken feed from TSC
@@justzeng1 long time no see!!! Still got your gym?
Hello Doc. Tha ks for very informative videos. Can you tell me the name of Banana plant you have. They are so pretty.
Hardy banana plant. Can take the cold
How long should the sprinklers be on for deep watering? I now do 10 minutes
In each zone that you’re watering place an empty can of tuna. Run each zone until you’re accumulating one inch of water per week. Best done one half an inch at a time in two feedings over the course of a week.
@@LlyleHunter thanks for the reply. I just thought "deep" watering might be 1 inch all at one time rather than multiple times to = an inch over a week
I had always heard spike aeration causes compaction. Any thoughts?
It does not RELIEVE the compaction true... but does not cause more. It offers some relief for the turf. i.e. greens are constantly spiked. Core will relieve compaction.
Its June .. you did a video about not overseeing.. my grass is still Not green and its june
Hey Doc....where can I get the same booney hat that you wear? Yours has thick brim instead of thin floppy one selling on amazon
If you have a publix or ace hardware near you, they both sell them.
Doc do you have any special instructions for Tiff 419 Bermuda grass? I live in the Dallas Fort Worth area
Ha! You follow him too? Small world..
Doc does super juice needs to be watered in?
Doesn't have to... but I water in 24 hours later.
@@HowTowithDoc thanks
What kind of grass is your lawn?
Can I have your old fencing? Lol... almost serious
What type of dog is that one sitting next to you?
The Duck sees all......
What state are you in
Georgia
1st!
Hate hearing about pgf complete and super juice. Bet you can't go through a video without mentioning
www.pgfcomplete.com/ that's what she said........
Don't do this cycle with bluegrass. Every 3 days. Bluegrass rhizomes won't drop down in the soil like a fescue
