If you do not water the lawn in our continental climate in time, in which abnormal heat with constant cloudiness in the complete absence of precipitation can alternate, then there will be a serious risk that the lawn will have time to dry out corny.
If perennial plants can protect yourself from dry weather, then this can not be said about green grass, which has shallow roots. Summing up the costs of seeds, fertilizers and soil, it becomes obvious that saving on irrigation of the lawn is strictly not recommended.
And so that every time do not worry about the condition of the lawn, it is better to choose automatic watering systems.
But why exactly such systems?
The whole thing is that now traditional steel pipes spent above or under the soil are no longer used. It is quite easy to catch on them both adults and children.
Nowadays, complex automatic systems for irrigation of lawns have appeared, which already use modern polyethylene pipes and electronics, which can give commands to electromagnetic water valves for irrigation if arid weather is observed for several days.
In these systems, it is customary to use either circular sprayers with nozzles, or combined, in which there is also a drip irrigation.
To obtain more accurate orientation about the weather, autonomous weather stations are also widely used, allowing the most accurately calculated the right amount of water for both surrounding plants and for the lawn itself. The budget systems use humidity sensors.
On the other hand, drip irrigation is appreciated by the fact that through special holes the liquid is supplied directly to the roots of plants, which reduces an order of magnitude risk of rotting of roots. In situations where nothing grows on the lawn except grass, it is recommended to use ordinary watering heads or sprayers, capable of irrigation territories of lawns in a circular regime with a radius of up to 10-15 m.
But what to do if there is no water in the water supply?
In this case, the installation of a special tank is recommended, in which a certain amount of water will be constantly located. This water will be cleaned with special filters; If necessary, it will be possible to add liquid fertilizers necessary for green spaces to the water system. And if a dry mode is observed for a long time, then the water from the tank, a subject under a certain pressure, will be able to irrigate all the green spaces in a short period of time.
The automatic watering system is best performed only here
