Orange County Irrigation Company
Now is the time to water your lawn!! We must receive five calls a week from customers asking for help. They haven’t been watering there lawns long enough. We have found out through over 20 years in the landscape industry that in Orange County most lawns fail due to a lack of water and fertilizer. In the summer months you must turn up your sprinklers so that enough water penetrates the root system. Every yard has different conditions like soil and sprinkler types but we say, the best rule of thumb for watering is to water as deeply and frequently as possible while avoiding runoff. If you have water running off the grass surface or puddling, your sprinklers are spraying too much at once, or your watering cycle is too long. Adjust as needed to avoid runoff. Early morning is the best time to water your lawn. A hour before the sun comes up. If your lawn is getting to wet try setting the timer for two start times. Once your lawn is green try turning your water down a few minutes and if in a week’s time the yard remains green leave your timer alone.
Water conservation
TRU Landscape Services is constantly learning the best ways to save water. We have ET timers that use satellites to control your watering. These timers will cut down your water usage by 20%. We have timers that can connect to your computer and we can adjust your sprinklers from our office. Many of the sprinkler companies have new sprinkler nozzles that will reduce your water usage. We have been installing Toro precision nozzles in all of our new landscapes and were really happy with them. Toro has made these nozzles so that you can install them on all other major sprinkler brands. This makes it really easy for us to come out to your property and change just the nozzles. These nozzles will save you up to 35% of your water usage. Irritrol has a new climate Logic, this system uses your old timer and gives it commands on how much to water. You will have your own little weather station attached to your property. One of the best ways to have a green yard at all times is to hire a professional landscape maintenance company. A professional company will adjust your sprinklers for proper watering all year long. We strive to train all of our crews to conserve water and still maintain a lush green lawn. At TRU Landscape Services we fertilize all of our properties on a regular basis. By fertilizing your lawn and plants on a regular basis you provide all of the nutrients that they need. Most lawns will require less water when fertilized on a regular basis. We have many customers ask what kind of fertilizer is best.. We use different fertilizers for every season. Our best recommendation is to hire a professional maintenance company. But if you like to maintain your lawns yourself, we would recommend your local farm supply or a irrigation supply house. We would avoid the large chain stores because you never know how much experience the person selling you the fertilizer has.
