Summer got your lawn stressed out?
In this video we cover 3 tips and tricks to help your lawn soak in more water this summer season!
The first trick is applying a wetting agent to the lawn. Many lawns suffer from drought stress during the summer and is unable to effectively soak in water. When water cannot penetrate the soil fully, grass roots suffer from lack of water and you can start having a brown lawn. Hydrophobic soil happens when substances like fungus buildup in the soil that repels water also compaction in your lawn plays a huge role. To combat this, we will be applying a wetting agent that Kelp 4 Less sells called Aeration + Yucca which provides water penetration your lawn.
This product is a biostimulant which contains Leonardite Humic Acid, Potassium Nitrate and Yucca Extract. This biostimulant is a wetting agent it also has surfactant capabilities that it prevents water beading on the brass blades when applied foliarly. It contains 36% Humic acid, 5% Nitrogen and 25% potassium which will help with summer stress in the lawn.
The second application we will be applying is Hydretain which is a root zone moisture manager. Hydretain sucks water out of the air and feeds it to you grasses roots. Its not a wetting agent like our previous application but it is a mix of hygroscopic humectants that convert soil moisture vapor into water that your lawn can use. I know sounds crazy but this stuff actually works!
And the last and most important topic we discuss is how we can improve the rate in which we water. I invited Kevin from Hunter Irrigation to shed some like on the MP Rotators which are the gold standard of irrigation nozzles. The MP Rotator pops up when it sprays your lawn and features rotating streams of water that deliver water at a slow and consistent rate. The slower application rate allows water to gently soak in your soil to prevent any run off that can occur. They are not only for in ground irrigation systems but they can also be used in making a DIY build.
