If you're watering your established lawn a little bit every day, here's some good news: you can stop — and your lawn will be healthier for it. 💧

Short daily sprinkles keep roots shallow and vulnerable to the heat. Instead, water deep and infrequent — about an inch, two or three mornings a week, before 9 a.m. Roots grow down chasing the moisture, and a deep-rooted lawn handles Texas summers far better (and trims your water bill too).

Quick check: if a screwdriver pushes in 6 inches easily after watering, you've hit the sweet spot. More watering tips at the link in the comments.
