Still watering your lawn like it’s mid-summer? That’s where things go sideways 😅💧
Autumn in Pretoria is a bit sneaky. Warm days, cooler nights… but your Kikuyu isn’t as thirsty as it used to be.
Here’s the shift:
Less frequent watering.
But when you do water, go deep.
That’s how you train those roots to grow stronger and push down into the soil, not just hang around on the surface.
And timing? Early morning wins every time. The water soaks in nicely, no harsh sun stealing it, and you avoid those damp conditions that can bring unwanted lawn issues.
Biggest mistake this time of year? Overwatering. Easy to do, but your lawn just doesn’t need it now.
Dial it back, water smart, and you’ll set your lawn up for a solid winter.
