In summer season, avoid watering your lawn in afternoon and evening. The best time in hot for watering lawn in hot weather is morning when it is cool to allow more water to soak into the ground rather than evaporate.


2. Keep Grass Longer:

Grass, just like other plants, has a crown from which new growth emerges. If you keep the lawn longer in the summer, the blades shade the crown and protect it from burning.

In the event that your garden is looking straggly in midsummer, don't fertilize it. Actually, its best to stop fertilizing around 30 days before summers arrive. Applying additional fertilizer in the high temperature of summer can smolder your yard.
