Lawn Watering Game Plan for the Boise Area

If you live by the Boise river your watering strategy will be different then if you were to live in Meridian and other areas in the Treasure Valley that have more of a clay soil.  Those of you living in Eagle, Star, or in Boise by the river have a sandy soil.  Sand does not retain moisture so if your lawn is rooted in sandy soil you will need to water more frequently.  The idea when you water your lawn is to do it as infrequently as possible, but really soak your lawn when you do.  This creates a deeper root system.  This will help your lawn win the fight against the hot Idaho summers and disease.

Watering a lawn in a clay soil should be done once every five days or so when temperatures are moderate.  When the summer heat hits you will probably have to crank it up to once every three days.  Lawns that are in sandy soils will need to be watered every other day in the summer.

Of course there are many other factors that can effect the health of your lawn like fertilization and proper lawn mowing.  Many times we have people who just need a simple sprinkler repair or adjustment to take care a dry spot.
