A basic sprinkler timer waters on the same days at the same time, whether it rained all weekend or the yard has been baking in a heat wave. Smart controllers decide each day whether the…

Winterizing your lawn means preparing both the grass and irrigation system for freezing temperatures. The irrigation system needs attention first: water left in sprinkler lines can freeze, expand, and damage expensive components such as the…

Water running straight off a sloped lawn before it has a chance to soak in is the single biggest reason slopes stay patchy no matter how often they’re watered. Splitting one watering session into two…
