Dry Soil And Cold Weather – Should I Water My Lawn Now?
Q: I am concerned about dry soil and cold weather. Would it be helpful to water my lawn now? I have bermuda, centipede and some fescue.
A: I can’t think of how watering would help dormant grass unless it was newly laid sod. I realize that it hasn’t rained in a while but there is still moisture in the soil. Unless your fescue is newly seeded, it doesn’t need water either.
