🌱☀️ Spring Lawn Watering Tips for Florida ☀️🌱

Spring is here, and that means your lawn is waking up and getting ready to thrive! But one of the most important things you can do this time of year is water correctly—too much or too little can both cause problems.

Here’s how to keep your lawn looking its best 👇

💧 Spring Watering Schedule (Florida):
• Water 1–2 days per week
• Aim for 30-45min per zone.
• Best time to water: early morning (4-8 AM)

🚫 Avoid watering at night—this can lead to fungus and disease issues

🌿 Helpful Lawn Tips for Spring:
✔️ Don’t overwater—your lawn doesn’t need as much water in spring as it does in summer
✔️ Look out for brown patches—could be insects like chinch bugs, not just dryness
✔️ Mow regularly, but don’t cut too short (this stresses your grass)
✔️ Keep an eye on weeds—spring is when they start to take off
✔️ If you have Bahia grass, remember weeds can be tough to control—fertilization and insect control are key

🌧️ And don’t forget—Florida weather can be unpredictable! If we’re getting regular rain, you may not need to water at all that week.
